Grandparenting in Europe 2013- who are the grandparents provoding childcare?Grandparents Plus
Grandparenting in Europe produced for Grandparents Plus by the Institute for Gerontology at King’s College London, shows that over 40% of grandparents in 12 European countries studied provide child care. This major new research shows a direct relationship between grandparents caring and the availability of affordable formal childcare and support for parents. It points to an emerging childcare crisis as the very grandmothers who are providing care are being expected by governments to stay in work longer.
NHS surges in final Issues Index ahead of the 2019 General Election
• The proportion of Britons who say the NHS is one of the most important issues facing the country has risen 18 percentage points since October to 54 per cent, close to Brexit which has fallen by six points to 57 per cent this month
• Brexit remains the single biggest issue by a long way and is also the most important issue influencing how people might vote
• Concern about crime and pollution has fallen while worry about the economy has spiked

International Women's Day 2019: Attitudes towards gender equality in ScotlandIpsos UK
New Ipsos MORI research shows that people in Scotland are more likely than those in most other countries to recognise that there is a problem with gender inequality:
• 58% of working-age adults in Scotland say that, in our society today, there are more advantages to being a man, with just 8% saying there are more advantages to being a woman and 28% saying it makes no difference. This is higher both than the global average (52% across 27 countries say there are more advantages to being a man) and the average for Great Britain as a whole (49%).
• 58% of adults in Scotland disagree that ‘When it comes to giving women equal rights with men, things have gone far enough in Scotland’. This is again higher than the global average (49%) and in line with views across Britain as a whole (59%).
• 76% of us say that achieving equality between men and women is important to us personally – higher than both the global average (65%) and the figure for Britain as a whole (62%).
But most of us don’t see ourselves as feminists – just 36% of working-age adults in Scotland agree that ‘I define myself as a feminist’.
The October 2019 Ipsos MORI Issues Index confirms that Brexit remains the biggest concern facing Britain in the eyes of the public. Two thirds of Britons mention Britain’s exit from the EU as a big issue (63%), similar to the September score of 65 per cent, while just over half see it as the single biggest worry (52%). Fieldwork was carried out while MPs were voting on Boris Johnson’s Brexit deal but prior to decision to call a General Election.

Public Attitudes towards immigration: August 2019Ipsos UK
In the latest survey by Ipsos MORI for IMIX, more Britons believe migration has had a positive impact on Britain (47%) than a negative effect (29%). Those who voted to remain in the EU in 2016 are significantly less likely to believe migration has a negative impact on Britain. Only 12% of remainers think so, compared to almost of (47%) of leave voters. However, while remainers’ views have stayed broadly stable since October 2016, leavers have become less negative (six percentage point down from 53%).
Still, over half of Britons (54%) say they want to see the number of immigrants coming to Britain reduced. Three in ten would like to see numbers stay the same while only 9% want an increase. However, there has been a continuing decrease in the level of disagreement over the last four years. In June 2015, two-thirds (66%) of respondents wanted to see a reduction in the number of immigrants coming to Britain, 12 percentage points higher than it is today.
While a majority want to see a reduction in the overall numbers of immigrants, when asked about specific occupations the public’s opinion is more nuanced. In fact, almost half say they want to see an increase in the number of nurses (49%) and doctors (47%) coming to the UK from the European Union after Britain leaves– consistent with findings from December 2018. However, compared to six months ago more people want to see an increase in care home workers (32% vs 28%) and academics (29% vs 22%).
The effects of immigration continue to split opinion. While 30% believe immigration is good for the standard of living for people already living in Britain, 36% disagree. Furthermore, two-thirds (67%) believe that migration puts pressure on public services and housing. People are also divided over the integration of cultures. Half of Britons (49%) agree that immigration enriches the UK culture and makes it a more interesting place to live, however six in ten (61%) believe that too often, migrants don’t integrate or follow British customs.
Opinion is also split on how Brexit will impact immigration. A quarter (26%) of Britons believe the number of immigrants entering the UK illegally from other EU countries will increase while one in five (21%) believe it will decrease. A third (34%) believe it will stay the same.
Dissatisfaction with the government’s response to immigration has remained the same since Boris Johnson entered No. 10. In December 2018, 57% felt dissatisfied with how Theresa May’s government was dealing with immigration, while 59% are dissatisfied with Boris Johnson’s actions so far.

The 2011 Report Card edition of the report card highlights the scale of the government’s challenge in delivering the Prime Minister’s commitment to make the UK the most family friendly country in Europe. The report shows how tough making the UK family friendly is given the economic climate and considerable squeeze on public and family finances.

Aviva's biannual UK Family Finances report (December 2014) reveals that:
> UK parents of 0-5s juggle earnings with childcare expenses
> 1 in 10 families using childcare for 0-5s say lower earner takes home nothing after childcare / work costs are paid
> Lower earner typically brings home just £243 after childcare / work costs are paid
> One in three families using childcare for 0-5s turn to grandparents
> Working parents are being hamstrung by childcare costs, with thousands effectively working for nothing, Aviva can reveal.
The company’s Winter 2014 Family Finances Report also reveals that one in 10 families paying childcare costs for youngsters aged 0-5, effectively see one earner bring home nothing from his or her job after childcare and work costs are taken into account.
Similarly one in four families in this position has one parent who brings home less than £100 a month after costs.

This event launched our state of the nation report, UK Poverty 2017.
The most up to date picture on poverty in the UK today
Keynote address: Rt Hon Robert Halfon MP, Chair of the Education Select Committee
The research assesses the progress the UK is making in reducing poverty and tackling its underlying drivers.
It looks at how a generation are living in poverty in the prime of life, because the routes to building a decent, secure life are increasingly out of reach.
The launch also included a panel discussion to explore how British politics responds to the challenges set out in the report.
The report, which has been produced in-house by the JRF Analysis Unit for the first time, examines poverty rates in the UK, and looks at how figures have changed over the past two decades.

Coalition Prime Minister David Cameron pledged to make Britain a truly family friendly country. This pledge created an opportunity for the government to 'family-proof' its new policies, creating conditions that really help families thrive. However, as the 2010 Report Card shows, there is a considerable distance to go before this aspiration can be achieved.
The 2012 Report Card indicated it is becoming difficult for the Prime Minister to stick to his commitment of creating a society which truly supports family life. The report card highlights that the condition of the economy continues to make life intensely difficult for millions of UK families, who currently face a triple squeeze of tax and benefit changes, high childcare costs and high costs of living.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

By focusing on these precise actions, organizations can create an empowered data analytics ecosystem that delivers real value by driving data-driven decisions and maximizing the return on their data investment.
3. People in social rented housing were more likely
to be in relative income poverty (after housing costs)
• 49 per cent of those living in social rented housing in Wales were in
relative income poverty between 2016-17 and 2018-19 (an average over
three financial years), after their housing costs such as mortgage interest
payments/rent and water rates were paid.
• This means they were living in a household where the total household
income was less than 60 per cent of the average UK household income (as
given by the median).
• In comparison, 41 per cent of people in privately rented housing and 13
per cent of people in owner occupied housing were in relative income
poverty after housing costs.

7. Most children living in relative income poverty
were living in working households
• In the latest period (2016-17 to 2018-19), 68 per cent of
children who were living in relative income poverty lived in
households where at least one person was in work. This
has increased for the last four periods from 60 per cent in
the period 2012-13 to 2014-15.
• In fact, about the same proportion of children living in relative
income poverty lived in households where all adults were
working compared with where one adult but not all adults
were working.

9. • When considering all children in Wales, the likelihood of being in relative
income poverty is much greater, and the gap is increasing for those living in
a workless household compared to living in a working household (where at
least one of the adults was in work).
• 77 per cent of children living in a workless household were in relative
income poverty compared to 22 per cent living in a working household in
2016-17 to 2018-19.
• Within working households, there is also a marked difference between the
likelihood of poverty for children in households where all adults work (15 per
cent) compared to households where some (but not all) adults work (39 per
cent), in 2016-17 to 2018-19
Over three quarters of children in workless households
were living in relative income poverty
10. For working-age adults, living with people who work
reduces the likelihood of living in relative income
poverty
• Between 2016-17 and 2018-19, working-age adults who lived in households
where no-one worked were over 7 times more likely to live in relative income
poverty than those who lived in households where everyone worked full-time.
• However there were still an estimated 50,000 working-age adults in relative
income poverty despite living in households where everyone worked full-time.
• Living in a household where there is a second earner reduces the likelihood of
being in relative income poverty whether that earner works part time or full time.
• In households where at least one working-age adult works full time, the
likelihood of being in relative income poverty is similar for households where the
second earner is full time (7 per cent ) compared to those where the second
earner is part time (9 per cent).
