Paperback. Condition: New. It's hard to escape the feeling that in Britain today nothing works. In the face of mounting inflation and widespread industrial action, this book offers an incisive analysis of the UK's problems and a new approach to tackling them.Economic growth and higher wages, the traditional responses of mainstream politicians, are simply not enough.

In the face of a cost of living crisis, widespread industrial action and mounting inflation, this book offers an incisive analysis of the UK's problems and a new approach to tackling them.Economic growth and higher wages alone will not fix these problems. Behind the 'cost of living crisis' is a deepening crisis of foundational liveability: not only squeezed residual incomes but also failing public services and decaying social infrastructure.
