YouTube Description
as posted by the channelResearch published today by Dame Sara Khan, previously an aide to Rishi Sunak, explores a weakening of social cohesion and public attitudes to the summer riots.
One stark revelation from the report is that 8% of the population believe that violent protests outside refugee accommodation is justified.
James O'Brien asks his listeners what is meant by polarisation in the findings, as he feels it is not 'a left/right thing', it's 'people believing things that are true and people believing things that are not true'.
In this monologue, he discusses Brexit, Andrew Tate, misogyny, and why people 'teeter on the edge of bonkers beliefs' about health, politics, and the global economy.
