"Madam President, according to statistics released in March 2017, child poverty in the UK has risen by over 400 000 since the Conservatives took power. Twenty-nine per cent of children in my own constituency of the East Midlands live under these conditions. The situation is similar throughout Europe, and indeed is even worse in many places.
What are we doing? How can any child in Europe be left behind so badly? For all the hot air of politicians throughout this continent and all the failed policies, we continue to fail our young people. It is simply not good enough. GDP growth and statistics mean nothing if children have nothing on the dinner table. We cannot go on like this, and we must ensure real change before we fail an entire generation."@en1
