The cost of living emergency - in your area

This government’s failure to deal with the cost of living emergency is taking a heavy toll.

 The cost of living emergency is hitting family budgets in every area – and every parliamentary constituency. Many families can’t afford to eat or keep warm this autumn. Rent and mortgage costs keep going up.

The TUC yesterday launched a new tool so you can see the impact of the cost of living crisis in your area. Warning: the the figures are shocking. 

Want to see the impact where you live? Search your postcode.

We all want to live in a country where working people make enough to live on, and thrive. 

By getting the general public outraged, on-side and signed up to take action, we can force the government’s hand. 

That’s why we’re building towards a mass lobby of parliament and rally in Westminster on Wednesday, 2 November. 

We will demand better, and we will win. Join us
