The data you've looked at intentionally excludes *what is already done*. So X million people in the UK can't afford to eat. If you ignore the benefits system. etc.
It intentionally ignores things like public services such as the health service. You consume the equivalent of approx £3.5k/year in NHS "insurance", for example.
When those things are taken into account, consumption inequality is (approximately) down.
