Kate Green comments on the ‘Monitoring Social Mobility’ report by the Social Mobility Commission

“This report exposes a Government with no interest in levelling up Britain.

“After a decade of Tory rule half of all adults from the poorest backgrounds receive no training at all after leaving school, life expectancy is falling for women in the most deprived areas and 600,000 more children are now living in relative poverty than in 2012.

“It's an appalling record of mismanagement and indifference to the life chances working class families and their children.”
