I mean there’s a lot to say on it (literally finishing a book on it at the moment), but it is central to how politics works, and I think the reason why a lot of politicians talk very little about it is because such a huge number of people have been utterly shafted

Yeah exactly. I think that's probably true, also no obvious party political agency on this issue at present, though there was a bit of it at the height of the pandemic. Less class-based political education now? Ultimately demographics favour those with property at the moment.

I can’t see exhaustion as the reason millennials don’t organise. The Russians abolished serfdom because they were afraid the serfs would revolt and they must have been REALLY exhausted.
