It isn't surprising that the working class, the real working class, those that actually work, complain that none of the political parties represent their interests.
In a TV discussion about the recent budget, a Labour politician challenged representatives of the other main political parties by saying that only Labour was tackling child poverty.
No-one responded to her challenge, no-one was outspoken enough to question whether there really is child poverty in Britain, as I have done, or outspoken enough to say that the (genuine) working class is paying an unfair price for this concept, as you have been.
