Bedroom Tax, most probably.
The definition of poverty is a meaningless one. Eg take the theoretical situation where prices double overnight, the number of people defined as being in poverty would stay the same. If people's income doubled overnight, again the number "in poverty" would still be the same.

The "bedroom tax" started less than a year ago.
