They tell me Rishi Sunak (Rishi means sage or ray of light and Sunak charm or friendliness) cannot possibly know what it is like to be poor in the UK today. He does not know what it means to be out of funds before the end of the month with bills still to pay.
Why does he not know? If it is true and he does not it can only be because money people do not mix with poor people. They do not attend partied, or work places together. But Sunbak is in Parliament and he sits at his constituency desk and hears the problems of his voters. He knows.
But he does not experience.
And that is the problem with politicians, their lack of a rounded experience of every level of their societies.
