Just a week to go before a voting day that's likely to lead to a radical change in the UK's political landscape. But what have we learnt about the parties and the personalities that will dominate the new politics, after a parliamentary clean-out of the old team? Will Labour have to cut back even its modest ambitions in the face of economic reality? Will the Conservatives suffer a reversal, or a full-on existential catastrophe? Rob Ford, Professor of Politics at the University of Manchester, and co-author of Brexitland, takes Phil and Roger through what may happen on and after July 4th Hosted on Acast.

In 1789, members of the newly-created National Assembly in Paris split between those for whom the king should retain an absolute veto, sitting to the Assembly President's right, and those who thought he shouldn't, sitting to his left. The primordial version of our structuring political cleavage was born: the party of order vs. the party of progress. This left-right divide has served as the founding metaphor of modern European politics. More than two centuries later, many are penning the obituary of that division. In 2017, the election of Emmanuel Macron against Marine le Pen seemed to usher a new cleavage, loosely defined as open vs. closed by some, nationalist vs. globalist or liberal vs. authoritarian by others. But is the left-right divide of yore buried just yet? Today we take stock of the evolving morphology of political fractures and map the main cleavages dividing European politics. With us this week: Francois Hublet, of Le Grand Continent, and the University of Manchester's Rob Ford, co-author of Brexitland (2020) and Senior Fellow at the UK in a Changing Europe (UKICE) network.

The Liberal Democrats began their 2024 campaigning this week by unveiling a huge poster branding them as ‘Ed Davey's Tory Removal Service', but they will have to be more than just the 'none of the above party' if they hope to make a difference come the election. What do the Lib Dems stand for? And can they turn by-election success into election success?  Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Nick Tyrone, author of the This Week in Brexitland substack.

Attitudes to migration were a key cause of Brexit – but is it still such a major factor in how people vote? With research showing that the UK now has a more favourable attitude to migration, what are the arguments for it? Alex Andreou is joined by Rob Ford, professor of political science at the University of Manchester, and co-author of Brexitland, to explore the real public opinions on migration beyond the headlines. “People can't do the maths on immigration so they always say they want less.” “A nationalistic narrative – that migration befits the country - is one way to change public opinion.” “The Labour voting opinion on migration has changed, there are more pressing things to worry about.” www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Book link: https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/brexitland/667A60CB4C315A755792074E79B20FBA  Written and presented by Alex Andreou.

Rob Ford, Professor of Politics at Manchester University and co-author of Brexitland, talks to us about:- What will happen in the 3 by-elections- What this means for the UK General Election- The new division between voters- Why Nigel Farage isn't done yet- The outlook for UK politics

In this episode of Future-Proof Your Career, we speak to professor of politics at the University of Manchester and frequent contributor to the BBC and other media, Rob Ford. Rob is the co-author of Brexitland with Professor Maria Sobolewska, and the author of The British General Election of 2019.  We spoke to Rob about how you extract meaning from people's words, even if they don't always say what they mean. Here's what we learned. Think of leaders as politicians Business leaders and politicians have a lot of the same pressures, particularly when they are trying to satisfy multiple audiences. It's one thing leading - and championing - a single team. You can be absolutely partisan. But when you have to satisfy people across the company, customers, and shareholders, and deal with lots more information, it's a very different situation. So people in senior positions are likely to be more conservative, more political.  Who is the audience? Think about the speaker's audiences. Who do they need to impress or please? This will shape a lot of their message. If you don't like it, you might not be their intended - or most important - audience. Social desirability bias People moderate their language because they're trying to appeal to you or because they don't think you will like what they really think. This might disguise negative feedback, people's real opinions or positions. We all have a hidden motive We're human beings with lots going on, both inside and outside the workplace. Accept that everyone has multiple motivations for their actions. Sincerity is powerful - even when it's faked While we can't recommend lying, the lesson from politics seems to be that we believe people who can perform sincerity. So try to be sincere in your message. But keep an eye out for those who might not be quite so sincere as they appear. Separate the message from the packaging Flowery language can disguise different intent. Take time to look behind the words and see the meaning. Repetition, repetition, repetition If you think you're missing something, or you want someone to reveal a potentially hidden motive, get people to repeat the message until you get clarity. Use variations on a question to extract all the missing pieces of the story. Foghorns, dog whistles, dead cats We talked about some of the terminology of political communication, much of which can be applied to the business world. A ‘dog whistle' is language designed to appeal to a particular group without making explicit statements that might attract public scrutiny - often where a policy might be deemed racist or otherwise offensive. Business leaders might signal to the markets that they want to downsize a business without explicitly talking about job cuts, though most people recognise what ‘rationalisation' really means now.  Sometimes there is no dog whistle and it's an outright foghorn instead, and the message comes through loud and clear. Some leaders are incapable of subtlety or just choose to avoid it. ‘Dead cats' are stories designed to distract from the bad news. And we see these in business all the time. CYA Often people will be motivated by CYA: Cover Your Ass. They will try to ensure that they are not left responsible if something goes wrong. Be particularly cautious about this if you are an external supplier - I speak from experience! Personality not policy Ultimately, remember you're dealing with a human being and in most cases, you will want to maintain a civil working relationship. You may not like what they're saying, but they may not like it either. In the long term, it's the relationship that will count.

Solo episode | Kanye "White Lives Matter" West likes Hitler, the Queen's BFF is an ignorant & problematic nightmare and Farage wants white cities. Just another week on this god-awful island.

In episode nineteen of Making Common Ground, Cat Neilan talks to Robert Ford, Professor of Political Science at the University of Manchester and co-author of the book Brexitland, about Brexit and its aftermath, how people have become polarised and why some do see Boris Johnson's Tories as the party of change.

In the second part of our UK coverage, we're tackling the largest component of the union, England. Home to 56 million people and a truly bizarre system of local government, the country held local elections on the 6th which revealed a changing party system. We explain the intricacies of local government in England, plus what the results mean for the Conservatives, Labour, the Greens and the Liberal Democrats as they head into the post-Brexit political era. Beneath the headline of Labour woes and Conservative gains, intriguing voter shifts were going on all over the country, as the Conservatives made inroads in traditionally Labour-voting areas while loosing to progressive parties across its southern heartlands.

What are the identity conflicts that define contemporary society? In Brexitland: Identity, Diversity and the Reshaping of British Politics (Cambridge UP, 2020) Maria Sobolewska and Robert Ford, professors of politics at the University of Manchester, explore the long term, structural changes in British society that underpinned the 2016 referendum on EU membership, the 2017 and 2019 general elections, as well as contemporary political debates and future questions such as voting on Scottish independence. At the heart of the book is the identification of new identity groups- both liberal and conservative- that have been shaped by changes in education and diversity, as well as by politicians' and political parties' behaviours. Offering historical analysis of immigration and public opinion, as well as a rich and detailed engagement with contemporary social attitudes, the book is essential reading both in the UK and in other nations seeing the rise of similar forms of social change and attitudinal conflicts.

In this episode, MEI Co-Director Robert Saunders discusses the book Brexitland: Identity, Diversity and the Reshaping of British Politics with its authors, Maria Sobolewska and Robert Ford. They touch on Brexit from a historical perspective, the political rendering of English and Scottish nationalism, and also summarise how the electorate changed, socially and in terms of values, in the decades leading up to the momentous referendum of 2016.

Is the Government’s piecemeal lockdown driving as big a wedge between the North and South of England as there is between Westminster and the devolved governments? Plus our special guests, Manchester University politics professors Rob Ford and Maria Sobolewska, join us to talk about their new book Brexitland: Identity, Diversity and the Reshaping of British Politics. Do the roots of Brexit really go back to the 1960s? And where do we go now that we’re all alone in Brexitland, our only home? “Once voters see politics as a big fight of us against them, it’s really hard to get them to think about anything else.” – Rob Ford“In Johnson’s conference speech, the only mention of the North was a jibe at North London.” – Ros Taylor“People may want lockdown, but not necessarily for themselves” – Ros Taylor“If Remain had won, the leavers in the Conservative party wouldn’t have given up as easily as Cameron assumed” – Maria SobolewskaPresented by Dorian Lynskey with Ros Taylor and Alex Andreou.

A legal action is being brought by three MPs and the Good Law Project to force the government to account for £3 billion spent on private contracts during the pandemic. Layla Moran, Liberal Democrat MP for Oxford West and Abingdon and the chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Coronavirus is one of them. She tells Bloomberg Westminster's Sebastian Salek and Roger Hearing public spending must be accounted for. Moran also says Boris Johnson's actions so far haven't done enough to stem the virus or help the economy, but led to the worst of both. Plus, are the tribes that blossomed during the Brexit referendum here to stay? Robert Ford, professor of political science at Manchester University, joins to discuss his book Brexitland, which argues that Leave and Remain is about much more than EU membership.

This week, Sarbjit and Matthew host Rob Ford, Professor of Politics at the University of Manchester and co-author of Brexitland with Maria Sobolewska, due out this Thursday.They discuss Ford's new book, whether Trump still has a chance, and how emotional bettors on both sides can skew prediction market prices.Your hosts: Sarbjit Bakhshi, head of political markets at Smarkets @sarbjit_pol Matthew Shaddick, head of political betting at Ladbrokes @shadsy Rob Ford (guest) @RobFordMancs Be sure to subscribe to the show, please consider leaving us favorable ratings and reviews, and check out all our shows at OldBull.tv. Cold Funk Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ All content and opinions presented herein, whether by hosts and guests, are for informational purposes only and should not be construed as investment or other advice.

Brexit is making headlines again. The Johnson government has introduced new legislation containing measures to unilaterally override certain parts of the 'oven-ready' withdrawal agreement between the UK and the EU. Northern Ireland secretary Brandon Lewis has conceded that the bill would break international law. Who better than to make sense of all this than our old pal Rob Ford, professor of politics at the University of Manchester. We first discuss these recent development before spending most of the episode talking about 'Brexitland' (Cambridge University Press) which Rob co-wrote with Maria Sobolewska. Maria and Rob show how gradual shifts in the fabric of British society coupled with elite-level political maneuvering led to Brexit.

How hard will a No Deal/COVID double whammy hit the British economy? New research from Best For Britain shows it will devastate the places you don’t expect as well as Brexitland. Could Black Lives Matter and America’s revolt against institutional racism cross over to the UK? And special guest Daniel Trilling of The Guardian explains how the new immigration regulations aren’t designed to “take back control” but to rip off workers. “We’ve proven you can’t bury No Deal under Corona… Some 7 million jobs are doubly impacted by both.” – Naomi Smith“In typical style, Mogg took an innovation that was working pretty well and decided they’d replace it with something old… just because they could.” – Ian Dunt“This government tries to sweep away criticism with cheery British optimism and it’s toxic.” – Daniel Trilling“What is it that Boris Johnson wants?

Ursula von der Leyen’s agenda for the European Commission. This is a big chapter and - we fear - a long episode. The last chapter (and last of our episodes on v.d.Leyen’s political guidelines) is all about democracy; about securing our democracy and safeguarding our European democratic electoral processes, which of course is very fitting as the UK’s political parties have gone all out for their own general election campaigns with various stories already emerging about referendum validity, foreign interference and manipulation of the electorate.  Rich and Carola try desperately to not get hung up too much on UK’s election news, which with all the gaffs coming out from all sides is admittedly rather tempting. But they cover the proposed Conference of Europe, attempt to fill out a questionnaire about the European Union (link to online questionnaire below), discuss the value of the civil service and then Rich has a rant about Carola calling the Westminster parliament the mother of all parliaments and finds a more fitting likening in a doddering great-great grandmother with hearing aids and challenged with mobility.  Moving away from Brexitland’s inability to move in any direction, they have a bit of fun quoting from an article that discussed what happened with the Spitzenkandidaten-system, but written in the form of a murder mystery. Be prepared for many suspects and many culprits as the reasons why the Spitzenkandidatsystem failed this time around has quite complex contexts. This will hopefully be resolved during v.d.Leyen’s tenure, as laid out in the last paragraphs of the guidelines of v.d.Leyen, who has promised to resolve and pin down ways the European Union will select its leaders in the future.  Main Source Ursula Von Der Leyen: Political guidelines for the next Commission (2019-2024) - "A Union that strives for more: My agenda for Europe" 16 July 2019  (pdf English Version (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/sites/beta-political/files/political-guidelines-next-commission_en.pdf) ) Coverage about expense scandals related to Nigel Farage BBC (04/06/2019): Nigel Farage refuses to attend EU hearing into Arron Banks cash (www (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-48516348) )   Guardian (21/05/2019): EU to investigates Nigel Farage over expenses funded by Arron Banks (www (https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/may/21/eu-investigate-nigel-farage-failure-declare-expenses-arron-banks) )     Conference of Europe Consultation on the Future of Europe (www (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/priorities/democratic-change/future-europe/consultation-future-europe_en) ), including    online consultation (www (https://ec.europa.eu/consultation/runner/Future-of-Europe?surveylanguage=en) )  white paper (www (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/future-europe/white-paper-future-europe-and-way-forward_en) )  and how to get involved in citizen dialogue initiatives (www (https://ec.europa.eu/info/events/citizens-dialogues_en) )    Other ways for citizens to have a voice and understand more about the EU European Citizen Initiatives: “Get a greater say in the policies that affect your lives.

It's a weird day in Brexitland as we're all waiting for MPs to sit tomorrow and decide whether they approve of Boris Johnson's Brexit deal. We get the thoughts of Nigel Nelson, The Sunday People's Political Editor. Plus, we cross live to Barcelona to talk to journalist Stephen Burgen about why there's been fire on the streets every night this week. And, is it safe to give bread to ducks?

Vandaag is iedereen die er ook maar een beetje toe doet in Brexitland druk in de weer om een akkoord op papier te krijgen waar de Europese top zich de komende dagen over kan buigen. Voor 19 oktober moet er een definitief akkoord liggen, anders moet the UK wéér om uitstel vragen. En Boris Johnson ‘ligt nog liever in een sloot’ voordat hij dat doet. Maar of het daadwerkelijk gaat lukken… Hieke Jippes, voormalig correspondent van het Verenigd Koninkrijk, zet de verschillende scenario’s uiteen.

Carola and Rich join across two seas, Carola connects from Turku in Finland, and Rich is still in dizzyingly chaotic Brexitland. But they don’t let the current stunts by Boris Johnson, a parliament prorogation and (non-)constitutional battles phase them and they keep focussing on EU Commission President Von Der Leyen’s Political Guidelines, including chatting about how open and closed borders should be, border and internal security, and whilst ranting about supermarkets and Amazon, they make a case on how trade should always refrain to be an end in itself, as Von Der Leyen suggests, and aim to support a shared wealth.  Main Source Ursula Von Der Leyen: Political guidelines for the next Commission (2019-2024) - "A Union that strives for more: My agenda for Europe" 16 July 2019  (English Version (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/interim_en%20) )

Showdown-Woche in London: Die britischen Abgeordneten sagen No zum No Deal, sie verweigern Premier Boris Johnson den Neuwahlantrag, aber der Regierungschef will lieber "tot im Graben liegen", als um eine Verlängerung für den Ausstieg Großbritanniens aus der EU zu betteln. Imke Köhler, Ralph Sina, Holger Beckmann und Alexander Göbel besprechen, was da für ein Macht- und Taktikspektakel läuft. Und was es bedeutet für Großbritannien und für die EU.  

Our Senior Brexit Correspondent Rob Ford, professor of politics at the University of Manchester, talks us through yet another eventful week in Brexitland. The endgame might actually be upon us... Music: Dexter Britain (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0), www.dexterbritain.com
