Every political leader should feel deeply ashamed that families have been "so badly let down" over the cost of living crisis, Colum Eastwood has said.
The SDLP leader said financial pressures facing households have become an "emergency" but politics in Northern Ireland "has failed people again".
He hit out the DUP and Sinn Féin, saying that for 15 years the two parties have had a "joint record of either bad government or no government".
