"Our Generation Was Lied To": Two Gen Z MPs on Fixing Politics
Summary
Host Vicky Spratt interviews Rosie Winterton and Kier Mather, two young Labour MPs, to discuss the economic struggles of Generation Z, including housing costs, student debt, and mental health. The guests argue that the social contract is broken, countering narratives that young people lack resilience by highlighting systemic failures and intergenerational unfairness. They also address the challenges of being young politicians, navigating workplace dynamics with older colleagues, and the urgent need for cross-party collaboration to address issues like NEETs and the student loan system.
