We are constantly being told in the United Kingdom that we are the fifth richest economy in the world. Indeed like many other countries the covid-19 pandemic has had a serious effect on our economic well-being and on people’s lives and on people’s jobs and livelihoods, but it is the poor who are disproportionately affected. It is the poor who are affected by lower life expectancy and so many other things.
The poor generally have no one to speak for them and I thank God for these two ministers whose Ministry to the poor is the difference between life and death for many in their local area
Heaven's above
