Please note that due do technical difficulties the last couple of minutes of this event are not included in the recording. November 13th 2025 The Budget run-in has centred around what taxes the Chancellor will need to raise to meet her fiscal rules. But housing could potentially play an equally decisive role. Ambitious planning reform could deliver the economic growth that Britain so desperately needs, the current mess of property taxation is ripe for reform, and better support for families in rented accommodation could raise living standards and reduce child poverty. Successive governments have failed to grapple with Britain's housing challenges, but can the Chancellor afford not to grasp it? How can planning reform be strengthened, and what might it mean for growth? How much appetite is there for touching the terrible twin taxes of stamp duty and council tax? And how should housing feature in the Government's new Child Poverty strategy that will sit alongside the Budget? SPEAKERS Emily Williams Director of Residential Research at Savills Paul Cheshire Emeritus Professor of Economic Geography at the LSE Jamie Carswell Director of Housing and Safer Communities at the Royal Borough of Greenwich Hannah Aldridge Senior Research and Policy Analyst at the Resolution Foundation Ruth Curtice Chief Executive of the Resolution Foundation (Chair)

DC is on the cusp of passing a law whose proponents say it could massively reduce child poverty. But the catch is that the bill would take away a lot of the local tax benefits that at least some folks would get as a result of the One Big Beautiful Bill passed by Congress. Jenny Gathright from the Washington Post has been covering the debate and is here to explain.  Want some more DC news? Then make sure to⁠ sign up⁠ for our morning newsletter Hey DC.

In a new report 'Measuring Access to Opportunity in the United States: A 10-Year Update,' The Annie E. Casey Foundation (AECF) notes that child poverty reduction has proved readily responsive to federal and state policy choices. The percentage of children living in poverty fell to a historic low of 5% in 2021, even as COVID slowed the economy, because programs like the expanded Child Tax Credit supported families. When these programs were wound down, even as the economy recovered, the child poverty rate rose, reaching 13% by 2024. Leslie Boissiere joins EconoFact Chats to discuss the report, highlighting the long-run economic and social costs of childhood poverty, and the role of public policy in addressing this problem. Leslie is the Vice President for External Affairs at the Annie E. Casey Foundation. She oversees the foundation's KIDS COUNT effort, as well as the areas of policy reform and advocacy, strategic communications, organizational effectiveness, and national partnerships.

Our guest today, Alex Beer, joins us at a critical time as the UK Government prepares to publish its child poverty strategy this autumn. According to official numbers, there are 4.5 million children living in poverty in the UK and 1.1m children are in families that have used a food bank in the past year.  The Nuffield Foundation launched a major new Strategic Review earlier this summer committing £30 million annually over the next five years to fund research and innovation that addresses some of the UK's most urgent social and economic challenges. Read more about it here (https://www.nuffieldfoundation.org/news/nuffield-foundation-announces-150-million-funding-commitment-to-tackle-uks-biggest-social-challenges)  As Assistant Director of Strategy at the Nuffield Foundation, Alex's role is to develop and deliver programmes of work that deliver the strategy and improve social wellbeing in the UK. In this conversation with Will, Alex shares some evidence-backed policy suggestions for alleviating child poverty, which includes changes to the two-child limit and the benefit cap, but also emphasises the importance of taking a holistic approach.  In the We Society, join acclaimed journalist and Academy President Will Hutton, as he invites guests from the world of social science to explore the stories behind the news and hear their solutions to society's most pressing problems.

On this week's conversation Paul and Wally discuss the Foundation's recent media relating to the Albuquerque Public Schools $350 million bond. You can see the ABQ Journal article here and the KOAT 7 story here.  An update on the billboard campaign and state's response. Among the topics EDD has posted on is NM's growth in manufacturing. Another data point being touted by MLG's administration is on the drop in child poverty. There is indeed good news albeit it is also a tacit admission that MLG's prior statements have been misleading.  A pumpkin patch located near Albuquerque was attacked recently. Here's more on the McCall's attack by a local teacher union. MLG is supporting a planned nuclear fusion facility and offering big subsidies for it. That contrasts sharply with her reaction to a nuclear waste storage facility's decision to abandon New Mexico.   RGF releases Freedom Index scores for the recent special session.

Pippa Crerar and Kiran Stacey speak to the education secretary and Labour deputy leadership candidate Bridget Phillipson about the plan for a ceasefire in Gaza, as well as why she is pushing the prime minister and chancellor to get rid of the two-child limit on benefits. Plus, she explains why she believes she is the best candidate to become the next deputy leader of the Labour party. And, we hear her thoughts on Keir Starmer's leadership and how Labour should take on Nigel Farage and the rise of Reform. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/politicspod

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack In this Reboot Republic podcast, Rory talks with Tanya Ward, Director of the Children's Rights Alliance about the reasons underlying the shocking figure that 1 in 5 children in Ireland are in poverty after housing costs are paid. We discuss the impact of the housing costs – as families are forced into food poverty and overcrowding, the impact on children of growing up in poverty, and the solutions – investment in early years intervention and targeted measures at low income families and areas of disadvantage.

We all want to see the next generation thrive - to do better than generations before. But there are a whole host of barriers holding children back, stopping them from reaching their full potential, and creating cycles that continue through generations. We always say children are our future, so why are we not doing more to support that future? Sir Ashley Bloomfield joins Tim Beveridge for Health Hub...

May 19, 2025 - The state budget included an expansion of the child tax credit, money for child care vouchers, and a rebate check, but how will it impact child poverty? We consider these policies with Pete Nabozny, director of policy at The Children's Agenda, and Kate Breslin, president and CEO of the Schuyler Center for Analysis and Advocacy, who are both members of the Child Poverty Reduction Advisory Council.

David Seymour is calling for culling of the government. He's floated a policy that would reduce the number of ministers and government departments, calling into question the necessity of some. Racing, Hunting and Fishing, Hospitality, Space, and Child Poverty Reduction were a few he named. Jan Tinetti is the former Minister for Women and Child Poverty Reduction, and she told Heather du Plessis-Allan the reason these ministries exist is to take a specialised look at issues. She says that while they are often covered under other portfolios, they would simplify the issues far too much, and we wouldn't get anywhere in solving them.

The government began to roll out its free breakfast club scheme this week as part of plans to help struggling families.

The Chief Children's Commissioner says we're still dropping the ball in providing some of the basics for our young people. The Government's Child and Youth Strategy report shows improvements in attendance, smoking, drinking, and offending rates. However material hardship, immunisations, food insecurity, and avoidable hospitalisations have all worsened. Claire Achmad told Mike Hosking she wants the Government to put a bigger focus on children. She says around half of children live in benefit dependent households, which doesn't provide enough for children to thrive. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the second hour of "Connections with Evan Dawson" on 2/20/25, we talk with members of the Child Poverty Reduction Advisory Council about their recommendations for reducing child poverty in NYS.

Figures released show 156,000 children living in material hardship in 2024, up from 144,000 the year before. That's almost 13.5 percent of Aotearoa's children. Measures of material hardship include having to go without fruit and veges because of the cost, putting off doctors visits and being unable to afford heating. 208,000 children were considered to be in poverty after housing costs had been paid - that's also up from the previous year. Minister for Child Poverty Reduction Louise Upston spoke to Lisa Owen.

Advocates for children are calling for urgent action as new data shows child poverty rates have stalled, and the government has missed all three of its targets. Stats NZ figures released this morning show hundreds of thousands of kids were living below the poverty line last year - and there was no improvement from the year before. Lauren Crimp reports.

The Child Poverty Reduction Minister attributes stagnant progress to tough economic conditions. Annual figures to June show no real change since 2018, despite a cross-party commitment to halve the rate by 2028. More than 143,000 children are estimated to be living in material hardship. But Minister Louise Upston says a growing economy will start to help. "For some families, the cost of living is still affecting them. The OCR drop yesterday - it takes a while for that to flow through and for families to really feel it." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The number in children experiencing enforced deprivation has increased from 200,000 to 257000 between 2021 and 2023, while the number of children homeless with their families has increased by 87% since 2021, yet we have billions in Budget Surplus. We discuss how the lifting of the eviction ban resulted in an increase in children and families in homelessness and the on-going cost of living crisis for families, the failure of government to implement targeted measures, and the public support for new initiatives from free school books to school meals. We highlight the need to continue to hold the ambition and hope to end child poverty and child and family homelessness. Support Rory and Dignity for Palestine:https://www.patreon.com/posts/111983961

Child poverty in the US has tripled in just a few years. Clearly this must be unrelated to the billions of dollars of support for Israel's genocidal campaign in Gaza, or the fact that the US will now be spending a whopping $1.6bn on anti-China propaganda, because that's what people are really struggling without... Meanwhile, several large strikes are popping off, not least of all one at Boeing where more than 30,000 machinists are sick and tired of corporate profits over safety and worker benefit.    leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com

Assassination attempts, conspiracy theories and a MAGA Prince Harry costume. How can Hannah and Mickey cram all the drama of the US election into one BT? Well, they give it their best shot, no pun intended.  And for Sexism of the Week, Mickey's been on the Zoom with journalist, broadcaster and author Terri White. Terri's podcast series, Finding Britain's Ghost Children, quite rightly scooped a whole load of awards and she has continued to bang the drum on how appalling the UK is when it comes to child poverty – 30% of our kids live below the breadline. One huge driver of this is the two-child cap, which Labour has not pledged to scrap. Terri tells Mick why it needs to go immediately if not sooner, talks about the devastating effects it's having, and explains why it's very much a feminist issue. Learn more about your ad choices.
