Oliver Farry speaks to Juliette Démas, London correspondent for the French daily Libération, who is the author of a new book, “Les affamés du Royaume” (“The Famished of the Kingdom”). It looks at the poverty crisis in the UK, which has seen an increasing number of people relying on food banks and has been exacerbated by years of austerity measures, Brexit, the Covid-19 pandemic and inflation.
