Beyond politics: How Britons view transport

More in Common partnered with IPPR to undertake a deep dive into public attitudes towards transport.

This blog provides an overview of Britons’ experiences of transport and their preferences for the future of our transport system, drawing from five focus group conversations held by More in Common across England over the last year.

Epping Forest: speaking to locals after the protests

Following weeks of protest in Epping and other parts of the country, More in Common spoke to residents of Epping Forest about how their town had found itself at the centre of a national debate around migration and protest.

Britain and the world

New More in Common polling for the Sunday Times takes a deep dive into Britons' attitudes to global affairs in what the public sees as a "chaotic" and "dangerous" world.

What does ‘putting Britain first’ look like?

The Global Future Foundation commissioned More in Common to conduct polling to understand what Britons would think of the UK adopting an ‘America First’ style agenda here in the UK. The polling shows that most Britons want to see politicians prioritise national interests, industries and identities. Yet despite the appeal of a ‘Britain First’ approach, few want to follow in the footsteps of President Donald Trump: in fact Britons are now less likely to think that it is in our interest to be on the same side as the US - and most think the President’s re-election has had a negative impact on  the United States.

More in Common's July MRP

More in Common’s new MRP projects Reform UK would be in touching distance of a majority if the General Election were today. Based on polling of over 10,000 Britons, the model estimates that,  Reform UK would be the largest party with  290 MPs - more than twice as many as any other party.
