Bank refunds: Many parents 'were always in recession' Parents and larger households, some of whom could be very vulnerable to increased bank charges and the rising cost of debt, might not have noticed the UK's economic recovery.

Chief executive of the Child Poverty Action Group Alison Garnham said: "For many families with children, the recession had never gone away."

She pointed out that the joblessness rate increased during the fiscal downturn.

They should also "do more to create jobs", as well as bring back the tax credits that many low-paid couples can no longer receive, she continued ppi claims
