From the 2024 riots and Operation Raise the Colours to Reform UK’s historic surge, Britain’s “left behind” towns have become the epicentre of political discontent. This book traces how economic decline and government failure to address public concerns – particularly around immigration – have fuelled disaffection in specific localities.
