That might be negative in some rare cases, but I can’t see how it would be negative for 20% of households.
I wonder how many are among their own staff?
Got a friend who works in ASDA and the wages are shocking. Even their department managers (section leaders?) who have to do rotas, juggle absences etc (essentially the ASDA lower management/team leader equivalent of your generic office job) are on like a tenner an hour.
Why would The Last Labour Government do this?
Oh but they still wont pay their staff a living wage .. nono no
Yea im sick of being in constant poverty even though I work 40 hours a week. I now only eat once a day.
Also says theyre lauching their Christmas campaign in July!
That is why someone created credit! And pay day shitty insane scheme. To keep people chained and loaded with debts. Fuck it! I never set one foot at asda and never will
Likely because 1 in 5 get poverty wages that require top ups from the government. The amount we subsidise business who keep making “record profits” is fucking nuts.
Im quite comfortably middle class but only recently (uni truly transformed my life). How did we let the system get so utterly fucked?
The rich always stole, lied and cheated but why are they so brazen now?
Meanwhile they’re refusing to pass on a drop in fuel prices, contributing to the crisis they’re talking about (and profiting from).
Ah right.
Still we’ll not pay people properly!
Asda taking the piss is one of the reasons that they’re in negative disposable income though so of course they know that
Those same people that are part of the totally nonexistent petrol price cartel?
1 in 5 households with £60 deficit between income and essentials – worrying. I wish every single one of those millions contact their MP.
Govt needs to stop talking and take action. They can always find the money for war.
I love to meet the other four families with disposable income. Maybe over a curry
Yay corporations will kill off their work force and end up with fuck all and die win win I’m happy with that
And how is ASDA privy to this information?
It says the average household only has on average £200 per week after bills, that’s like £800-1000 per month depending on how your wage is calculated.
That’s gonna be depressing to a bunch of people for different reasons.
Economy is only benefitting the rich over 12 years of tories, but it takes a 3rd party sperate from the government to tell us what hardships we as a nation are facing.
Why the fuck are the blind in charge?
And yet the Pursue more and more profits
We all know it’s a lie, it’s more like 2/5 or 1/2
And yet they still refuse to pay their staff a living wage.

But we’re still going to blame inflation on people getting small pay rises, right?
Meanwhile ASDA profits have increased 42% over the past year
Probably many of their employees whilst they make a fat profit
Maybe Asda can stop raising their prices so exponentially.
We gone from Tesco, to Asda to Aldi, not sure where else there is to go next.
Try foraging
Isn’t disposable income the money you have left after paying income tax?
