Main finding of my research with @ukonward: after decades of liberalising politics there has been a sea change in attitudes. By a ratio of ~2-to-1 voters want a society based on more security, not more freedom #politicsofbelonging ukonward.com/thepoliticsofb…
It is true for every age group, every region, for Remain & Leave voters. This isn't just nostalgia: we find people are open to change, inc. greater gender equality, because they think the system is stacked against people like them. But they don't like the liberal change on offer.
What does this mean in terms of every day issues? Most people believe that the growth of cities and increasing numbers going to university have been bad for society, and that communities have become more segregated rather than more diverse.
