From the bottom to the top of our economy, capitalism is too blunt
an instrument to tackle Britain's epidemic of inequality. Soaring
rents, unfair taxation and a growing gig economy have brought about
unprecedented economic shame: Amazon warehouse workers living in
tents, nurses turning to foodbanks, London firemen commuting
hundreds of miles to work. Even those higher up the ladder are
losing their grip on the life they were promised. Barristers take
home less than the minimum wage and doctors are starting out with
GBP100,000 student debts on salaries lower than the national
average. We're all facing a new economic phenomenon - in-work
poverty. At the same time a generation of young professionals is
coming to terms with never being able to own even the cheapest home
in their area. From the bottom to the top of our economy,

But there is hope for a better, fairer future.
