Immigration isn't the biggest problem facing working class people. Don't believe the media.

This is how I'm going to vote in the election

2024-06-1624:16

There's an election coming up, and the tories are going to lose. But don't get too excited, because I don't have much hope in Labour either. Here are my thoughts.

How do we really grow investment in the UK?
