For me, this book was a real eye-opener. I only knew the working class world from my own personal level but it showed me a deeper, more human side far beyond the negativity the media portrays.

This book looks at historic and demographics of the British working class detailed and uses case studies to highlight characters of different places within Britain where some have several problems ranging from several issues from poor housing, education and employment. The book attempts to discuss the modern white working class without trying to belittle them.

This is such a thought provoking (and timely) read. Intelligently smashing famililar stereotypes and offering an alternative narrative of Britain today.
