There are two parts to England: London and not London. All the money is centered in the capital and the rest of the country is neglected. House prices in London are driven up to insane levels due to the money laundering through real estate transactions for empty housing.
The majority of the working class people in England live in poverty.
- repolfx 8y agoThat's a fascinating definition of poverty. It's certainly not an internationally recognised one. Have you ever been to England? People in Birmingham or Manchester are certainly not living in poverty by any reasonable definition of the term.
