The New Working Class: How to Win Hearts, Minds and Votes

Autor Claire Ainsley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 mai 2018
Most people in the UK still identify as working class, yet no political party today can confidently articulate their interests. Recent events such as the Brexit vote and the UK 2017 general election result highlight the erosion of traditional class identities and the decoupling of class from political identity. Who is now working class and how do political parties gain their support?

Based on the opinions and voices of lower and middle-income voters, this insightful book proposes what needs to be done to address the issues of the 'new working class'. Outlining the composition, values, and attitudes of the new working class, this book provides practical recommendations for UK political parties to reconnect with the electorate and regain trust.

Recenzii

"In [The New Working Class: How To Win Hearts, Minds And Votes], Ainsley...demanded much greater support for families and praised David Cameron for introducing a 'family test' to assess how any new policy would support families. [She] argued that low-income voters both support and benefit from strong family ties."

"As executive director of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and as author of a thoroughly researched book, [The New Working Class], [Ainsley] spent years studying real workers. She argues that a distinctive new version has grown up beside the old industrial working class. Four in five jobs are now in the service sector, many of them (particularly in cleaning, catering, social care and retailing) poorly paid. The new workers toil in a much more fragmented world than the old working class, often in isolation and bound by individual contracts. They are also much more ethnically diverse. But ethnic diversity doesn’t align them with urban progressives. Ms Ainsley identifies four key values that resonate with the new working class: family, fairness, hard work and decency."
