claim: Northern Ireland has the lowest disposable income in the UK.
evidence: NI Has UK's Lowest Disposable Income [...] As the UK's worst performing region, it means the average family in NI has only £127 per week at its disposal once all taxes, essential items and bills have been paid. [...] The average Northern Irish household had a disposable income of £100 per week in the first quarter of 2023, a drop of 21.2% when compared to the same period last year, according to the latest Asda Income Tracker. This is the seventh consecutive quarter that NI has recorded the largest year-on-year decline in income of any region across the UK.
