1 It's not a documentary. But to see how closely #Idanielblake matches reality, let's have a look at some details from the UN report on poverty in the UK: ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/…
2 Impact of the delay in receiving universal credit - based on a study on its roll out in the North East.
3 Impact of sanctions in the universal credit system, based also on research
4 Impact of cuts to benefits, legal aid and local authorities
5 More on the impact of cuts to local authorities, including emergency welfare funds for people in crisis situations #Idanielblake
6 Sharp rises in homelessness and food bank use, and inadequate new construction of social housing #Idanielblake
7 Analysis of the disproportionate impact of cuts on various groups - including women, children and those with a disability #IDanielBlake
8/ This is only a selection from the UN report on poverty in the UK (the PDF version has footnotes with sources). The report does also mention some improvements, but this debate deserves more than Mr Cleverly's glib and patronising response to @RLong_Bailey
