Want to know why most people don't think the UK economy is working for them?

That real household income has been stagnant for a decade might have something to do with it...

(And don't forget these real levels have taken inflation into account *but* such adjustment doesn't include house prices which continue to climb as a multiple of wages, making one aspect of economic life seem less & less affordable).

This is why Zack Polanski's message on the economy has traction!

@ChrisMayLA6 question, can wage increases and inflation exist in a degrowth economy? Or are they both dependent on economic growth?
@morfil @ChrisMayLA6 an alternative would be to reduce the cost of living - reduce housing and energy costs certainly, and arguably food - and you need wage inflation a lot less.
