Abstract
Relative child poverty is often associated with single parenthood. In fact, children of single parents have always constituted a minority of relatively poor children in the UK. However, in the last decade the Blair government has pursued an anti‐poverty strategy targeted at single‐parent families with the result that children in couple families have become relatively poorer and powerful disincentives have been created that discourage people from taking the most viable routes out of poverty.
