as UN special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, almost all of these rosy accounts rely on one measure – the World Bank’s $1.90 a day international poverty line – which is widely misunderstood, flawed and yields a deceptively positive picture. It has generated an undue sense of satisfaction and a dangerous complacency with the status quo.
Looks like even you guys knew about poverty AND reported on it as recently as 2017 🙄
PhilipGAlston You sabotaged jeremycorbyn with your lies and now you’re harping on about poverty really?
If you think poverty has just been discovered, then you must have never left your gated community since you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. The presumption this article makes is insulting, and just more gaslighting.
BREAKING: Capitalism bad.
Truly a shit headline, Guardian.
no fucking shit, sherlock. i'm sorry, shite
It has truly been hiding incredibly well. Without Covid, poverty would've likely never been discovered. Nobody could've guessed that with a system of finite resources, a few people having an enormous amount reduces how much everyone else can possibly have.
Y'all just realized this?
Wow, traffic must have been so light you actually noticed. Thank you for 'revealing' it to the rest of us. Clueless
Revealed to whom? Jesus
“Revealed”
Duh...
Hold on, it looks like you're on to something here. Keep at it, you may just blow this 'poverty' story wide open!
Is this from TheOnion?
you uh... you're just picking up on this huh?
Noooo are you serious
Lmao whaaaaat?
Hiring interns straight out of university is a great way to get new perspectives like this. More newborn journalists.
Revealed!
File this under no shit
the Guardian discovered poverty! behold the new frontiers of journalism
The government is taking it seriously by selling the NHS to the US. Only the rich will be able to afford it and it within the poor out. Wars don't kill so many people now.
And you’ve only just seen fit to report on poverty? Rag!
Not a word on Hagia Sophia Guardian, hey?
What absolute tosh from the Guardian, 'we' all knew about the poverty long ago - it's just that 'we' chose to ignore it. Black lives in Ethiopia/Yemen/Syria/Congo don't matter - let them perish say the rich nations!!
No wonder newspapers are dying!
This is known to all people around the world. The richer some people are, the poorer others are.
I have no idea what this even means. When the money runs out you won’t be missed.
Truly shocked!

Number of positive Covid-19 tests remains stable in EnglandAn estimated 14,000 people had infection over past two weeks, according to ONS data A thousand infections a day is not something to celebrate or be proud of We can and should do much better Correct me if wrong but this says (bottom) 2.8m people might have had it (modelled estimate) which makes the risk of actually dying very low, thank goodness? And the over 50 esp 70s with comorbities still most at risk. Most of the population should be more relaxed than they are. Lol, I've seen the same headline yesterday about France! But stable doesn't mean good! In that case, it means 'cases are still high, and we can't achieve better'!
