Meanwhile, 23 per cent of young people in London fear they are “going to fail in life”, compared to a staggering 36 per cent in Wales and 34 per cent in the East Midlands.
Similarly, just 25 per cent of young people in the capital believe they won’t be as successful as their parents, while in the East Midlands and Yorkshire and the Humber, the figure rises to 39 per cent and 36 per cent, respectively.
That figure jumps to 41 per cent in the East of England and 37 per cent in Wales, rising even higher in cities like Portsmouth, where 55 per cent doubt they’ll ever be able to buy.
The numbers are even higher in cities such as Liverpool (47 per cent), Bristol (47 per cent), and Portsmouth (45 per cent).
In London, this falls to 33 per cent – 16 per cent lower than in the East Midlands.
