Explainer on UK poverty

[MaxGhenis]

• Describe the four UK poverty measures: absolute/relative and before/after housing costs
• Justify our choice for absolute (we already report inequality)
• Justify our choice for before housing costs (inflation adjustments already capture overall housing costs, and one's own housing costs are an expenditure, like the ability to spend more or less depending on the quality of other goods and services)
• Mention that we intend to report other poverty measures
• Age breakdown
• How our estimates compare to HBAI
• Deep poverty = below half poverty threshold
