Voters demand action on world poverty

Morning! I wish we had some sunny content to brighten up a drab Monday for you... Well, what we do have is some heartwarming news - an overwhelming majority of voters want to see the political parties do more to fight global poverty, according to a YouGov poll published at the weekend. This expression of public opinion is an obvious boost to the Make Poverty History campaign, which commissioned the poll to coincide with World Poverty Day yesterday (Sunday). Over 80 per cent of those questioned believe that politicians need to respond as urgently to the number of children dying in Africa every day as they did to the Asia tsunami.
