Terrific response, as I may have mentioned, to this week’s episode of #TheTodayPodcast , on how those in their 20s/30s feel they’ve only ever known economic malaise, all caveats about modern life notwithstanding.
Mary Portas felt strongly about her daughter’s generation:
'I couldn't say to her, 'I was earning that wage when I was your age'...'
Queen of Shops Mary Portas tells Amol Rajan that she made the same money working back in her early 20s as her daughter did after graduating.
