From Morning Report, 7:56 am on 21 October 2020

Anti-poverty campaigners are urging Labour to move fast and use its massive electoral support to forcefully tackle inequality.

The Child Poverty Action Group is one of several advocating for the new government led by Child Poverty Reduction Minister Jacinda Ardern to immediately raise income support.

Campaigner Janet McAllister says benefit levels are so low they lock many children into severe poverty.

She speaks to Corin Dann.
