Our latest British Social Attitudes report found people are at least as distrustful of government and politicians as they have ever been. People are inclined to think that democracy works less well in Britain now than it did in the past. A record high of 45% now say they 'almost never' trust governments of any party to place the needs of the nation above the interests of their own political party. #NatCenDataBites

In our hyperconnected and increasingly decentralised digital age, the rapid spread of conspiracy theories online has become a significant societal concern. Through innovative research, enhancing public education, reimaging collaboration with tech companies, and identifying at-risk individuals, the new government can mitigate the dangerous impacts of this emerging and pervasive right-wing content. An evidence-led approach will help ensure a safer, more informed society. Our latest blog explores the real-world impact of misinformation online: https://lnkd.in/eZGNSkas #Misinformation #Security
