MODERATORS
Yes, exactly.** Reading the article disproves the headline. **
When I hear 'not eating three meals a day' I do not think 'has skipped one meal in the last two years.' (which is how the headline get's it's 38% statistic.)
It's not that deprivation does not exist in the EU, it's that the scale of that deprivation is of an entirely different order than implied by the headline.
