Enraged or Engaged? Angela Rayner on The Gen Z Story

Leasehold in particular is really, really hard to understand.

The Rest Is Politics
Enraged or Engaged? Angela Rayner on The Gen Z Story

And it's my main job to try and understand it.

The Rest Is Politics
Enraged or Engaged? Angela Rayner on The Gen Z Story

But it's interesting that it's not communicated in that way, right?

The Rest Is Politics
Enraged or Engaged? Angela Rayner on The Gen Z Story

No one's talking about leaseholders, though that's going to help Gen Z, even though it is renters' rights, maybe a bit more so, but still not really employment rights we can get to in a minute in detail.
