Most families in poverty 'in work'

There are more working families living in poverty in the UK than non-working ones, a charity reported - the first time such a balance has been recorded.

Some 6.7 million working families live below the poverty line - an increase of 500,000 on last year - compared with a combined 6.3 million of retired families and the out-of-work, the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) said.
