Bingo.
To live a life on or near minimum wage, with little job security or career progression is reality for very large proportion of people now and it's difficult to feel part of anything other than an underclass. The fact that the bottom-end of the jobs market is flooded with europeans here short-term, happy to tough it out in a shared bedsit and send money home has bred some resentment.
It's not fucking rocket surgery ... but Jeremy C hasn't really dealt with this at all. I'd like to see him try, then hopefully survive. I like him.
