Can anybody link me to educational resources on class analysis?
Especially those pertaining to the United Kingdom, such as the big northern working class cities like Manchester.

I'm struggling to understand this. What class of human puts other people before their own income? I'm not a landlord and I'm not putting my income in jeopardy to help a hobo out.
I rent my house to a woman who worked as a server in a restaurant until Covid. When restaurants were forced to close she offered me half of the rent as that was all she had. I told her to keep it, not worry and stay safe. This was when there was still a lot of uncertainty. After 3 months she started paying me again without me asking. Do you think I'm a terrible person?
You are a terrible landlord. I would have evicted and found somebody who could pay full price, and kept her security deposit to cover the transition. I doubt you are as successful of a landlord as me because you make foolish business decisions.

You are a landlord, you have to be evil /s
That's why having a good relationship with the landlord or your renter is just good for everyone.
