Episode notes
The problem of Britain in recent decades has been the fact that the people who run the country have absolutely no clue what's going on where you were born. Because of class differences, then really since the Blair period, what we've seen is the rise of the career politician and a real drop in the percentage of people from what in class areas. The system, the politicians, the political classes are democratic structures, but not designed to take in common calls. And I think that this issue of proximity is a real fundamental problem for a democracy generally, but particularly in the UK right now.
