The director deliberately used individual cases to describe it as common. The bottom class in the UK is not so miserable. It is because the father is indeed not smart enough. . He is the case not universal

It is the same in the UK, including Europe and the United States, that is, doing manual work is very profitable, and blue-collar workers are no worse than white-collar workers.

This father went to do some new Internet logistics. . . The contract will not be taken seriously, and it will be signed directly. . . Do you really think you are a partner? ? . . . Then let you take out a loan to buy a car. . . You should do it for at least a week and see. Every day you can make money even if you rent a car every day. At least there is a way out. Don't try it, just take out a loan to buy a car, and sell your wife's car as a down payment. . .

Then there was something wrong with the co-worker's house, and the supervisor wanted to fire him in front of everyone and asked who would pick up his line? ? At this time, you can't make a head bird even if you kill it. . . The male protagonist actually took it. Was his head caught in the door? . . If it goes on like this, next time you will be kicked out.

You are not disabled. Both of you and your wife are working hard enough to endure hardships. Find a supermarket tally clerk, a construction site, and a weeder. . . There's always time to regulate a little bit of hard work.

This husband and wife are also, without planning, they are desperately making money, can the two children grow up normally? In the end, the one who loses is himself, isn't the boy just a delay. . .

There is a saying, one step is wrong, one step is wrong. . . That's what the protagonist is! Even at the end of the movie, he was still wrong, and everyone in the family didn't listen, he thought he was the only one right

But he never thought that if he was really right, how could his family live like this? ? ? Therefore, there is a saying that poor people must have something to hate. It is really 100% correct, and it is completely their own death!

Finally, let's talk about the director. I deliberately found the most stupid British low-level family to tell the story, which is a bit deliberately sold out. . .
