Tom Baldwin and Marc Stears England: Seven Myths that Changed a Country

As the new government heads for a year in office, the bestselling biographer of Keir Starmer and the influential head of the think tank the UCL Policy Lab unravel seven myths that have distorted ideas of this country and have provided ammunition for charlatans or culture warriors from both left and right. Travelling across the country, from muddy fields in the Home Counties to the ports of Plymouth and Hull, they spoke with many different people, including politicians Nigel Farage and David Lammy, playwright James Graham and scientist Sarah Gilbert, to discover a startling picture of a country that belongs to everyone, or at least, to no one in particular.
