In this episode of The Common Sense Podcast, Mike sits down with financial expert Rotimi Merriman-Johnson to unpack one of the most uncomfortable questions in modern Britain. From the wealth gap and home ownership to culture, migration patterns and financial literacy, this conversation goes beyond surface level explanations.

We explore whether the issue is structural, cultural, behavioural, political, or a mix of all four. What role does history play? How much does mindset matter? Are we having the wrong conversations about money in Black Britain?

Rotimi brings data, lived experience and sharp analysis to a discussion that too often gets reduced to slogans. This is not about blame. It is about understanding.

If you care about economic mobility, generational wealth, or the future of Black Britain, this episode is essential listening.
