The British government has imposed a number of cuts to our welfare system in the hope of stemming an ever-increasing financial deficit. This shortsighted solution has instead stemmed the UK’s cultural progress, social empathy and economic mobility. Those that need the most help seem to be suffering the greater pain. This is counterproductive. Fiscally it will dig a deeper hole in the public purse by intensifying the problems surrounding financial hardship. Socially it will further segregate an already disparate population. My images are my way of expressing a counter narrative.
