1
Why do Britons feel the country is broken?
2
Well, I just think the way that people are leading our country,
3
I just don't think it's right.
4
They've got their priorities all wrong.
5
Why is the electorate so fractured and impatient?
6
I don't think we could be any more patient without politicians, to be honest.
7
Over the years, look who we've had for God knows how long and look what they've done.
8
Is the UK simply ungovernable?
9
Of course it's ungovernable.
10
We just need someone with a pair to get back in involved and actually be in control.
11
That we believe is credible.
12
We start our exploration into British discontent in London.
13
A weekend of two protests, characterised as rivals.
14
A symptom of polarisation.
15
But are the people on these rival marches so different?
16
First, the pro-Palestinian protesters.
17
The biggest issue in this country is severe wealth inequality.
18
Do you think there are people on the other march who have the same problem about wealth inequality that you have?
19
100% and they've been tricked to think that it's people coming in boats,
20
brown and black people, who are the problem.
21
People just tend to blame a lot of problems in government and with this country on immigration.
22
Well, it's not.
23
I think it's the competency of the government that people need to focus on a bit more.
24
Yeah.
25
What do you think are the problems within the country?
26
Inflation, cost of living, things like that,
27
you know what I mean?
28
I think also that there is a massive gap between the people in the government body
29
and the actual people that are supposed to govern.
30
Ali from Chingford in Essex worries his daughter will inherit a less tolerant Britain with growing inequality.
31
There used to be a time when post-Second World War there was investment in infrastructure,
32
in creation of jobs, in creation of wealth for the everyday person.
33
Today the mantra seems to be you'll own nothing,
34
be happy with it and that's the end.
35
Do you think there'll be people on the other march who will list all those same issues that you've just raised?
36
Completely agree, they will be.
37
If we're referring to the hate march and they'll refer to us as the hate march,
38
this is the part of the problem, right?
39
So how have we got this stage where we've got two hate marches with two opposing views on each other,
40
but having essentially the same...
41
We don't have opposing views.
42
Our views are that the everyday man deserves a chance.
43
Half a mile away, the Unite the Kingdom march is reaching Parliament Square.
44
My son back there, he's a bricklayer.
45
He's got no work.
46
He has no work.
47
It is all Lithuanians in there.
48
And, you know, he's got his own little children.
49
He's out of work half the time.
50
I'm on the bidding for the council.
51
How long have you been waiting for?
52
Five years.
53
Five years.
54
Five years.
55
So I'm in a house and a subsidence.
56
I can show you pictures of my subsidence house.
57
And I've got my five children living with me And the council don't want to help me,
58
but yeah, you've got these coming over into England They're getting housing benefits everything Like this You're feeling forgotten.
59
You're feeling left out.
60
Yes Exactly that.
61
Yeah left out sounds like the biggest issue for you personally It's housing.
62
So why not go on a housing march?
63
Where's the help?
64
Chelsea is from Sandwell in the West Midlands,
65
where a quarter of the population was born outside of the UK.
66
And demand for social housing has doubled in three years.
67
Nationally, available stock is in decline
68
and the average waiting time for council homes with three or more bedrooms is now nearly eight years.
69
Of course this is an anti-migrant gathering but would as many people be here if we didn't have a chronic housing shortage?
70
Our contract with the government was we'll pay in social contract that we'll look after our own people.
71
That's gone now.
72
Whatever we're spending money on is not being put back into the communities,
73
It's been booted into something else.
74
People here will tell you it's immigration,
75
that's a small part of it, but everything's went downhill.
76
You go to NEN, it's yes,
77
N-E, it's a war zone.
78
It is, and it wasn't like that when I was a kid.
79
On the face of it,
80
these two marches couldn't be more different.
81
But if you scratch beneath the surface, there are similar themes.
82
Disillusionment with government, a sense of injustice,
83
a feeling that the country and people's lives are getting worse.
84
Whatever flag they march under,
85
they feel the government is walking blind.
86
Two years ago, I took a parliamentary bench across Britain,
87
asking people what mattered in the upcoming election.
88
The cost of rent tripled in the last few years.
89
Going to a shop and doing like a weekly shop is just so expensive.
90
I kind of feel like in a lot of ways I was better off 10 years ago.
91
From Cornish beaches to Scottish hills to the waterways of Wales,
92
Labour offered a glimmer of hope.
93
Very comfy.
94
I can see why they nod off in Parliament.
95
Probably going to vote Labour and just go for the safe option.
96
What makes you think they're safe?
97
Safer than Conservatives, I think.
98
For decades, the Labour vote in Wales has been as solid
99
and dependable as this aqueduct but we've come back here because in just two years the political landscape has changed dramatically.
100
The May Welsh Assembly elections were a revolution.
101
Plaid Cymru first, reform second, Labour crushed.
102
Two years on, returning to the Telford Inn in Clamglochland,
103
we find takings are down 30%,
104
even though the next nearest pub has closed.
105
Punters drive here for days out,
106
less so now with high fuel prices.
107
Hello you two.
108
Good to see you.
109
How are you?
110
How are you?
111
I'm very well.
112
Good to see you.
113
What, two years?
114
It has been two years, yes.
115
Yeah.
116
I mean, Labour's been here for, what, 27 years?
117
Yeah and all of a sudden you go around the farmers are even putting up these things
118
for either Plaid Cymru or reform and it's something
119
that we've never seen the whole fact of the insurances going up national insurance who having to pay more for
120
that the minimum wage crazy the way we've got to pay a 14 year old the same as a 17
121
and a half year old but then the problem also knocks on to the fact
122
that 17 year old who's just about to turn 18 says
123
wait a minute i've been working for three years why am i earning the same as a 14 year old
124
so they're now asking for more money
125
so you're now having to put them up to the 18 to 21 bracket
126
but then the 21 year old says well wait a minute
127
if the 18 year old
128
and it's true i've had this this year already i've had
129
staff say basically you've got wage inflation yeah we've done our own business
130
and that's just one business look at all the businesses we're
131
all everyone wants more money all of a sudden yeah
132
that doesn't work that way but that's exactly what robert and sarah's staff want.
133
With how much everything costs being on the wage
134
that we're on I don't think is enough
135
because you know you get paid and then your bills come out
136
and then you've got like a hundred pound or whatever you're on to live off for the rest of the month.
137
Me being 19 I want to go out
138
and I want to have a good time with my mates
139
but I feel a bit restricted from it because of how much everything costs.
140
But Erin and Lana know they're lucky to have a job.
141
I know a lot of people that are struggling to get jobs themselves and like with all the,
142
especially hospitality businesses, like going bankrupt and closing down.
143
New figures show youth unemployment has climbed 16 percent with 729,000 16 to 24 year olds currently looking for work.
144
There's fear too that AI will do to jobs what the internet's done to the high street.
145
From Wales we've come to the Wirral.
146
This is Ellesmere Port, where there's an unsettling sense of decay.
147
Canvas homes are erected amongst rusted shutters and glass shopfronts offer nothing.
148
This used to be Wilco,
149
then closed down and turned to Poundlands.
150
Poundlands was only there for a month and it just closed down.
151
Back when I was a kid we had everything,
152
toy shops, clothes shops, the town was booming.
153
Retailers that remain open are often ones thriving on desperation,
154
such as Wayne's Porn Shop.
155
It's definitely a time I see everyone struggling,
156
it's not just one type of character,
157
you've got people that you wouldn't expect,
158
you know, people that are working full-time jobs,
159
multiple jobs, and they're still having to come in just to make ends meet,
160
pour on a few bits in just to get by.
161
People tend to sell the jewellery.
162
We send it off, it gets melted.
163
Everyone makes a bit of money,
164
helps people out in a tough time.
165
But just as our fast-paced shopping habits have turned high streets into ghost towns,
166
have we become too fickle and impatient to give our politicians a chance.
167
The government relies on indicators such as GDP,
168
our economic output, which is actually rising faster than expected.
169
But people aren't feeling it here.
170
Crime is falling.
171
But surveys suggest most people think it's going up.
172
And hospital waiting lists are dropping fractionally.
173
But that still leaves 7 million people waiting.
174
One of them is Heather.
175
We're now in Lee, Greater Manchester.
176
This trip to get her scooter serviced might be her only day out this week.
177
A former carer herself, she's lacking in social care
178
and has been on a hospital waiting list over a year now for a new diagnosis.
179
It does make things harder.
180
Just waiting?
181
It's the waiting.
182
That's the hardest part, the waiting.
183
And they're not knowing, but when you know there's something wrong and you can't put your finger on it,
184
and they can't put the finger on it,
185
it's like, where do you go next?
186
You don't know where to go,
187
you just know there's something not right.
188
No one's listening.
189
How are the government doing?
190
They're struggling at a minute,
191
I'd say for two reasons.
192
First reason is because it's still cleaning up after the Conservatives,
193
and the second one is because they're dealing with everything that Trump is putting us through,
194
dealing with all that in Iran.
195
Yeah.
196
So they've not had enough time to figure out what they can do for our country.
197
The Health Foundation found those in the wealthiest 10% of areas
198
can expect 20 more years of good health than those in the poorest.
199
More than half of Lee is in the top 20% of most deprived areas in the UK.
200
Time may be running out for the Prime Minister.
201
So much of it has already been wasted in British politics.
202
We've ended up in Downing Street in Lee.
203
The Black Door has seen better days and nobody is battling to live here.
204
But if you count up the days of leadership challenges,
205
snap elections, six prime ministers swapping in and out of the more famous Downing Street,
206
over the last decade we have actually lost more than a year just in contests for number 10.
207
The centre ground of politics is crumbling through inaction.
208
People want leadership, direction, and their shift from traditional parties isn't just punishment.
209
It's a cry for help.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
