      Britain's Choice. A new study from More in Common. It finds many people are frustrated/exhausted by political divisions, but a considerably less polarised society than we have been telling ourselves in the last few years. Read the study here.https://www.britainschoice.uk/

      More in Common's method segments public into groups based on beliefs, rather than demographics. A similar 'tribes' approach pioneered by Hope Not Hate post-2011 + by British Future on migration/identity. More in Common model has applied it in US, France, Germany, UK + elsewhere.pic.twitter.com/C8a8didCBc

      The comparative lens finds Britain considerably less polarised than America (or France). The big reason is thst Britain's divides are more of a shifting kaleidoscope than a polarised 'them and us' divide between two coherent camps.pic.twitter.com/UeAfwWJZUn

      This insight reinforces the headline of the King's College/Engage Britain study, which sets out the dynamic of a more coherently polarised US politics over last 30 years, but Britain more fragmented than polarised, with more areas of convergence too https://www.kcl.ac.uk/policy-institute/research-analysis/divided-britain …

      "Kaleidoscope" is potential inoculator against ever-increasing polarisation * political incentives (need shifting coalitions on Brexit, economy, political reform) * More common ground (NHS, underestimated on gender/climate) * A big 'balancer' middle on identity/culture clashes

      9/10 want to find ways we can disagree better. A 6/10 'exhausted majority' who find the level of division exhausting. Nb, skews left + centre. May reflect timing (a Feb 2020 finding) just after big political win for right after 3 years of deadlock. (Losing is more exhausting?)pic.twitter.com/DbGBfOAWu8

      Here are those 7 segments on a political compass. The Progressive Activists are the most active. This report has both good news and some big challenges for the actively progressive.pic.twitter.com/NJtmo2Sxoi

      The good news for progressives is the breadth of (moderate) social liberalism in British society in entrenching liberal gains of the last 50 years + the breadth of potential latent support on future issues, including climate, inequality and dispersing power.pic.twitter.com/npKU16VaY6

      But there is a big But. A constant refrain through the report is evidence of the level of social, psychological and emotional distance between the Progressive Activist 1/6 and the broader latent support they would want to unlock and mobilise . Example of patriotism.pic.twitter.com/40s3HhRa4l

      There is plenty to work with on these broad public perceptions of race, opportunity and prejudice - alongside insight into some of the challenges in mobilising and sustaining effective coalitions to pursue race equality.pic.twitter.com/PWpTcYlJQ3

      You can see the activation of anti-prejudice norms by most (if not all) respondents in these thermometer findings of warmth/distance towards different social groups. Distance from political + business elites, political opponents (and, err, Liberal Democrats)pic.twitter.com/wmO2TelfhS

          Covid a volatile time for social perceptions. More in Common reinforce @jillyrutter finding of a surge of unity, which has faded. This Feb v June v Sept snapshot suggests we had kept half of that gain, but lost half of it. The unity spike higher + broader in UK comparativelypic.twitter.com/me2LxxpPvs

          This important nuance should influence @togethercoalit and #TalkTogether - Most people want Covid to bring change, not a return to normal, but are still sceptical it will happen - But confidence we can make *local* change happen is stronger now.pic.twitter.com/yexQJFv0NM

          Most people are balancers - though some are polarisers. The public appetite for a debate about protecting free speech, challenging hate speech - not for polarised conflict on this. Those on both 'sides' have got work to do on trust and content to secure the boundaries there.pic.twitter.com/j5su9s3Nus
