A special edition of Tonight reports exclusively on the shock findings of the biggest and most in-depth study into poverty levels in Britain. The Living Standards Survey asks 1,500 people living in Britain today what they deem to be necessities for everyday life. The survey finds that having a warm, damp free home and enough food to feed your family are basic necessities that almost everyone says no-one should go without and many now consider owning a computer with internet access and a mobile phone an essential part of modern life.
