If ministers do not reward that work, how are they going to motivate people, he wondered, adding that this “ultimately affects the tax receipts the Government collects”.

Emma Schubart, data and insights manager at the Adam Smith Institute, said in August as the think tank focused on “the anxious generation”.

She said: โ€œThe youngest generation of British workers are sending a clear message. They feel overtaxed, underhoused and undervalued.

“If our political class continues to ignore these warning signs, we risk exporting our talent at precisely the moment when it is most needed.

“With the country already facing a wealth exodus thanks, in large part, to its reckless decision to scrap the non-dom tax regime, the Treasury can hardly afford to lose an entire generation of ambitious young people as well.”

She added: “Addressing these challenges is not just a matter of fairness – it is essential to securing Britainโ€™s long-term economic and social future.

“Young Britons urgently need evidence that ambition and hard work still translate into security and success in this country.โ€
