Brexit. Trump. Corbyn. Populists. What the F***!
Interested in finding out how our political world is getting overturned, what’s behind it and what might be next?
In this talk, Prof Matt Goodwin, regular contributor to BBC, Sky News and author of the Political Book of the Year, will take you on an a fact-packed political rollercoaster and a deep dive into the data on what is really going on in this unique moment in history.
Are populists here to stay? How are our political loyalties being reshaped? Is democracy really doomed? What sinister trends should keep us up at night? And how does your own political compass compare to those who are fleeing the mainstream?
Whether a politics junkie or an average observer, this interactive talk will make the current explosion of political change accessible to all.
You’ll leave with a more sophisticated understanding of how politics is changing, a stronger understanding of the longer-term trends that are changing our society and a firmer grasp of what might be around the corner.
