Original: "Our rigged economic model is the cause of so many problems facing our communities: deindustrialisation, insecure work,

Commentators are arguing that Britain's economic model is rigged against ordinary communities, citing deindustrialisation, insecure work, profiteering by privatised utilities, soaring housing costs, and growing wealth concentration at the top while public services are run down. The critique frames these problems as connected outcomes of the same system rather than isolated issues, resonating amid ongoing debates over living costs and public service cuts.
