“I have friends who are aristocrats, I have friends who are upper class, I have friends who are you know working class. Well not working class…” – Rishi Sunak
“For too many Britain is broken and the gap between the haves and have-nots is in danger of becoming a chasm,” Two Nations: The State of Poverty in the UK, report by the Centre for Social Justice says the country is “deeply divided”, with the “systemic problems facing those at the bottom of society in danger of becoming entrenched”.
“It was much easier to defend growing inequality when you could claim people at the bottom were getting slightly wealthier, but that isn’t what is happening in the UK”.
– Professor Danny Dorling, Oxford University
