Is Britain Falling Apart?

About this episode

A growing number of rather vocal people, some with large platforms to amplify their message, are utterly convinced that Britain is in deep decline, on the verge of a massive uprising and even civil war, thanks to widespread perceptions of crisis. Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK is one of the most prominent, with his 'lawless Britain' campaign. And yet when you look at some of the statistics where you would expect to see evidence of such a crisis - they seem not to justify the rhetoric. So is this purely an online perception? How could such a thing happen, and what are the chances it becomes reality in the near future? Let's discuss.
