If there is one thing that seems to hold true across politics is that these people are constantly overlooked by the left and right.

It's a no-win situation for sure. This side of 2020 there is genuinely no happy ending and, even after that, there's no doubt our economy and politics will be quite different.
I don't like it but losing financial services will affect pretty much everyone so should be protected at basically any cost, but that relies on a degree of pragmatism that I'm not sure is still there in either public or politicians.
