CLASS on Class

CLASS (Centre for Labour and Social Studies)

Britain is a country obsessed with class. But how well do any of us really understand class in 21st century Britain? Are we class clueless? Dr Faiza Shaheen, Director of the Centre for Labour and Social Studies (CLASS), explores the surprising reality of class in Britain today, speaking to some of the leading experts on how Britain votes, thinks and lives. And she sets out the case for why class still matters – and why getting it wrong would spell disaster for our society and politics.

  • 3 - 3: How does class affect our politics?

    With guests Owen Jones and Ellie Mae O'Hagan. On our journey so far, we've talked about why class is still relevant and what the class system looks like today. And we’ve talked about the impact class still has on life in Britain - how it still defines our life outcomes, with very few of us born to working class parents making it into the top professions. This week, we’re getting political.
