This podcast from BBC Analysis examines the disparity in pay and work opportunities across the UK.

Paul Johnson compares places such as London and northern cities such as Manchester and towns like Rochdale to attempt to explore why some regions of the UK are so different in terms of wages.

This podcast could be used for the Work, Poverty and Welfare unit (distribution of poverty, wealth and income).
