Scotland's Future: Poverty

Sunday Morning

Available for over a year

In this month's Referendum discussion we turn our attention towards poverty, and exploring that gap between the have and have-nots. Recent figures show that 18% of Scots are suffering from three or more measures of poverty such as a lack of food, heating and clothing. Revd Martin Johnstone and Cath Milligan from The Poverty Truth Commission, and Dr John McKendrick, Senior Lecturer in Social Studies at Glasgow Caledonian University, look at why poverty and inequality are still such issues when there's so much wealth around.
