British politics: What does the public think? conference

Join us on Slido here: https://app.sli.do/event/a7fLapqMduLjq7zgHHxKPq

2023 has seen a number of historic by-election victories, and continued debate about the chances of the two main parties as we head towards the next general election. Meanwhile, increased levels of public concern around issues including immigration, the environment and the economy has shifted public debate. Join us to hear from a range of expert academics, pollsters and Westminster insiders as we discuss where the public stands on policies and parties, and present new public opinion research on education, ethnic minority voters, Brexit and the cost of living.
