Explore our research on the key issues shaping British public opinion, from cost of living and crime to identity, democracy and Britain’s place in the world.

How Fair is Britain?

Over the past year, More in Common and Kantar Public have surveyed over 10,000 people, to try and better understand what the British public thinks about issues of inequality, fairness and the gap between the haves and have nots. This longitudinal lens has allowed us to see the impact of the rising cost of living, from the beginnings of the crisis in Britain last winter to the present day, and how it has imprinted on public attitudes.
