      The constant dismissal of London as middle class/young ignores so many factors, because class is treated entirely reductively in political media and polling. Firstly, London has some of the highest poverty and inequality, (YES, including Islington)

      Secondly, huge numbers of people under 35 live in London because there’s barely anywhere else to attempt to find a career. This section in @Alex_Niven’s book is great on thathttps://twitter.com/DawnHFoster/status/1188131908913373190 …

      Post-crash that was made worse (I graduated in 2010), but even beforehand, young people felt they had no choice but to leave postindustrial areas. The only jobs above minimum wage in many places were call centres, which then got outsourced.

      And loads of people I know were told they didn’t have experience for minimum wage work, but couldn’t get experience without the work they were turned down for.

      The majority of jobs created post-crash were south of the Watford Gap for years. That left parents angry that their kids felt they had no choice but to leave.

      And when people I know from Lincolshire, South Wales & Yorkshire speak to family, they attribute them leaving to people from Eastern Europe “stealing their kids’ jobs” even though eg my friends point out they work for a charity, they weren’t planning to be a seasonal tulip picker

          And that narrative is easier to both sell and absorb than one about deindustrialisation and the abandonment of regional economies for decades by both parties.

          The brain drain in the Welsh Valleys tends to be towards Cardiff, Bristol, Bournemouth and London or at least that's where many of my family, friends and neighbours moved to pursue their careers.

          What we really need to http://ask.is  why these jobs cluster in London. Journalism is fairly easy to understand it's the seat of government. But I dont want to donate to a charity that's going to piss my money up the wall on central london premises.
