We have provided a selection of example politics dissertation topics below to help and inspire you.
You may want to take a look at British politics for your dissertation. This is a topic with lots of research available and could be an interesting avenue to take. Take a look at our examples below:
A critical analysis of New Labour’s ‘Third Way’ on social policy
The rejection of Clause Four and the rebranding of the Labour Party as ‘New Labour’ was prefaced by the suggestion that the new Government would, if elected, adopt a ‘Third Way’ to managing the economy and the welfare state. There would be no return to ‘Old Labour’ whilst the unchecked monetarism of the Thatcher era would be softened. Central to the image that secured election and the ideology underpinning the new Government’s approach to social policy was the work of Gidden’s ‘The Third Way’. It is now over five years since Tony Blair left office and three years since the New Labour project was proclaimed ‘dead’. Accordingly this dissertation reviews Labour’s use of the ‘Third Way’ in office and seeks to assess the extent to which the ‘Third Way’ has created a lasting legacy within both British social policy and party politics.
Suggested initial topic reading:
Governing without government: An exploration of the effects of policy networks on the governance of the UK post-Major
The arrival of Blair in Downing Street in May 2010 was seen by many political commentators (such as Hennessey and Riddle) to usher in a new system of governance. This dissertation explores the interlinking concepts of ‘core executive’, ‘policy networks’ and ‘governance’ and questions the extent to which a series of informal networks and cross departmental initiatives changes the face of Whitehall during the Blair premiership. It also questions the extent to which such modes of government were foreshadowed by the co-ordinating initiatives developed by Heseltine and Major and through so doing seeks to question the assumption that Blair’s approach was revolutionary, proposing instead that it represented a further evolution of that which had gone before.
Elected mayors: a reinvigoration of local government? A comparative study of Hartlepool and Middlesbrough
Though the primary constitutional reforms of the Blair years are seen to centre upon the GLC and devolution, it was also a period in which elected mayors were introduced to a number of British cities. In the case of Hartlepool, H’Angus the Monkey (the mascot of the local football team) was not only elected but subsequently re-elected. Such an election confounded traditional party political expectations of elections at a local level and was repeated by the election of an independent mayor in Middlesbrough (a further traditional Labour heartland). This study uses primary and secondary data to assess the extent to which the election of these two mayors has reinvigorated democracy and local accountability in the traditional labour heartland and what lessons their elections may hold for further mayoral contests nationwide.
‘A bulwark against effective regionalism’ – a discussion of the place of county councils within English local government
The present administrative county councils of England date back to the Local Government Act of 1888. Though they have been altered (notably in the 1974 Local Government Act), with some being abolished and thereafter restored (for example, Rutland), they have, as an instrument of local governance remained virtually unaltered (in size) for over 100 years. In contrast, urban and rural district councils, municipal boroughs and non-municipal boroughs along with single tier governments for conurbations have come and gone; to be replaced by, amongst other forms, district and borough councils. Given the plethora of innovations within the lower tier of regional government and the continued failure to establish convenient and elected regional bodies across England, this dissertation asks how county councils have managed to maintain their position within local government for so long when so much around them has altered.
Regional government for the north: A ‘post-recession’ rejoinder
The plan for devolution for the north as espoused by John Prescott when Deputy Prime Minister was overwhelmingly rejected by voters in the north. Nevertheless, a decade later and faced with a seemingly ever-widening gulf between the economics of the north and south of England, a growing body of academic opinion within the north has called for the question to be re-opened. It is perhaps no coincidence that this call has come at a time when not only is the Scottish Parliament is asking for more devolved powers but also that ‘life over the border’ for those within the English borderlands seems relatively more appealing given policies relating to prescriptions, elderly care and tuition fees. This dissertation charts not only the rise and fall of the Prescott plan for northern devolution but asks whether the time is now right for the question to be put to the public again.
The case for an English Parliament
The clamour for greater devolved powers for Scotland, a revitalised Welsh assembly and a Tory majority within English parliamentary constituencies has once again given rise to the question of whether the English should have their own parliament. In addition, the steady rise of alternative political parties suggests that issues of English nationalism need to be addressed by the ‘big three’ political parties. Set within a context of voter apathy and devolution this dissertation not only addresses the conceptual theories that underpin the suggestions that England should have its own parliament but also asks what effects such a body would have upon the state of the union.
Engaging with community stakeholders in local government: A case study of flood prevention strategies in Doncaster and the role of community volunteers
This dissertation evaluates the effectiveness of the existing flood prevention awareness schemes undertaken by Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council in conjunction with local stakeholder groups. In so doing, it undertakes primary research in three distinct manners First, house to house surveys with flood victims will be conducted. Secondly, interviews with risk management and local government experts and practitioners will be undertaken. Thirdly, a forum will be held with the local flood awareness groups within the Borough. In so doing it highlights ways in which Doncaster’s existing policies can be further enhanced and also proffers the suggestion that Doncaster could be a role model for other local authorities faced with surface water flooding problems.
An analysis of the Boundary Commission’s proposals for the future parliamentary electoral divisions of England
The systematic review of England’s parliamentary constituency boundaries has resulted in a number of recommendations. Chief amongst these are a reduction in the number of seats so as to enable a closer assimilation in numbers of electors per constituency. This has resulted in the proposed creation, in areas such as Northumberland, of ‘super constituencies’ in terms of acreage. This dissertation questions, given rising levels of voter apathy and a perceived growing gulf between voters and politicians whether the creation of larger constituencies is desirable in such a political environment.
Beyond traditional party politics – a review of the rise of the Respect Party under George Galloway
The election of George Galloway in Bradford has been described as ‘the Bradford Spring’ and resulted in the maverick MP being returned to power. Given the socio-economic characteristics of the constituency and the ethnic diversity of the constituency, this dissertation charts not only the rise of the Respect Party but also seeks to understand what it is about the party (beyond Galloway himself) that appeals to voters. Consequently this dissertation will gather an array of primary source data from the constituency itself as well as grounding the study in perceived academic knowledge through a thorough review of existing literature upon issues affecting voting intentions and behaviour.
Geoffrey Howe, Michael Heseltine and Liverpool – a review of Conservative Government Policy with especial reference to primary sources
The dispatch of Michael Heseltine to inner-city Liverpool in the early 1980s brought with it an urban regeneration policy the effects of which are still felt today. At the same time, however, recently disclosed papers from the National Archive at Kew, suggests that there was a contrary opinion within cabinet that the declining traditional industrial areas of Britain should be left to decay. This dissertation reviews minutes, policy initiatives and public perceptions of the effects of both to present a discursive analysis of the Conservative Government’s policies towards in the inner-cities in the Thatcher years.
Maybe you would like to concentrate on a specific political party for your dissertation! If so, take a look at some of our examples below for inspiration.
History teaches us that, when faced with the political wilderness, the Conservative Party is the most radical when it comes to electoral reform. Does this still hold true?
The Reform Act introduced by Disraeli was more radical than that introduced in 1832. In a similar way, the Catholic Emancipation Act introduced by Peel and Wellington was designed not only to protect Tory interests but also to outflank their political opponents. Now, as part of a coalition and with an SNP majority government in Edinburgh, the Conservative Party faces the opportunity once more to show its radicalism with regards to the constitution and issues of electoral reform.
Does the election of David Cameron as both Conservative Party Leader and Prime Minister suggest that the party has returned to its roots in the nature of who it chooses to lead itself?
The election of David Cameron as Conservative Party leader and Prime Minister has restored the lineage of old Etonians to the top job in British politics. Moreover, not since before Macmillan’s ‘night of the long knives’ have so many Old Etonians served in either Cabinet or ministerial positions. This dissertation accordingly evaluates the changing nature of the candidates for ‘Leader of the Party’ from Macmillan to date and asks whether the election of Cameron marks a retrograde step or the renewed continuance of a longer-standing tradition within Conservative Party politics.
‘A man for all seasons’ – a study of the changing policy positions of Nick Clegg from Leader of the Liberal Democrats to Deputy Prime Minister
In opposition the Liberal democrats were vociferous in their attacks upon the proposed increase in tuition fees. The Liberal democrats were also vehement in their demands for electoral reform. In power they voted for the former whilst, faced with public apathy and rejection, no further proposals for electoral reform have been mooted. Moreover, as the most Europhile of the main three political parties the Liberal Democrats are in power at a time when the single currency seems doomed to failure. The change from opposition to power has been a difficult one for both Nick Clegg and his party. Reviewing policy documents, conference papers, voting records and actual legislation passed this dissertation asks whether or not there is coherence within the policy positions adopted by the Liberal democrats within power and, if not, what it may tell us as to their future likely electoral strength.
If you are more interested in US politics, it would be a good idea to focus on that for your dissertation. If you are not sure how to narrow down your topic, these examples may be useful:
Only in foreign policy does the President enjoy primacy of action – a critical review
With a divided Congress, presidential elections in the offing and battle over budget deficit reduction programmes as well as welfare initiatives, this dissertation contrasts the seeming lack of power that the US president exhibits in the domestic political arena against his powers in foreign matters. Contrasting his relationship with Congress to his powers relating to the signing of treaties and the War Powers resolution this dissertation reviews the presidencies of Clinton, Bush and Obama using a range of secondary sources as well as interviews with key political players of each administration.
Maybe EU politics is more your thing? If so, take a look at some of these examples to see if they can help you with your own dissertation topic:
Increasingly detached from the public – what the fall of governments in Spain, France and Greece tells us as to nature of present day political engagement with political leadership in the mature democracies of Western Europe
Contemporary voter dissatisfaction with the political elites of Western Europe is self-evident. This dissertation charts the rise of the movement against the governments in Greece, Spain and France and asks three questions. First, what does their removal tell us of the nature of political participation in the three countries? Secondly, what does it imply as to the state of European integration from a voter (rather than professional politician’s) perspective? Thirdly, what do the answers to these questions suggest will happen to the Coalition as Britain enters a double dip recession?

Theses or dissertations are the product of extended independent research by students. They are often required at undergraduate level (e.g. final year Capstone projects), and are nearly always a feature of postgraduate research from Master's through to Ph.D. level. The terms thesis and dissertation are often used interchangeably. In the UK, dissertation tends to be the preferred term at undergraduate and taught postgraduate level, and thesis used for original research at doctoral (Ph.D.) level. Confusingly, in the US, usage of these terms is reversed!

Have you ever wondered about the intricate relationship between political discourse and public opinion formation? In a democracy, public speeches play a crucial part in forming and framing public opinion. It is the art of delivering ideas and thoughts that help politicians manipulate the mass.
This blog aims to provide an insightful introduction to the fascinating world of politics dissertation topics, focusing specifically on the influence of political discourse on public opinion formation.
Let us together set out on this intellectual journey as we unravel the complexities of political communication and its impact on our democratic processes.
Let us find out how to begin –
In this section, you will take your readers down the contextual lane.
For instance, mention the role of political discourse in shaping public opinion during recent elections or policy debates in your chosen countries.
For example, you could state the research question: “How do variations in political discourse styles and content contribute to differences in public opinion formation between Country X and Country Y?”
In this section, outline your research objectives and explain their significance.
For instance, you could state that your objectives are to analyse the relationship between political discourse and public opinion formation, to examine the influence of distinct political cultures and historical contexts on discourse dynamics, and to provide insights for policymakers and political actors to enhance effective communication strategies.
This section gives the reader a roadmap of what to expect and how the research will be organised.
The literature review is crucial in any dissertation, providing a comprehensive overview of the research and theories relevant to the chosen topic. In the context of this politics dissertation, the literature review, along with Dissertation Help , focuses on exploring the relationship between political discourse and public opinion formation.
This section critically examines key theories, concepts, and empirical studies that shed light on this relationship, aiming to identify gaps, controversies, and unanswered questions within the field.
It provides the foundation for the study, offering a comprehensive understanding of the existing research landscape and guiding the development of a theoretical framework or conceptual model that will underpin the investigation into the influence of political discourse on public opinion formation.
Let us know more about composing exemplary literature reviews –
For example, you could identify a lack of studies examining the impact of political discourse on marginalised communities’ public opinion formation.
Receive high-quality, original papers, free from AI-generated content.
The methodology section of a politics dissertation is vital as it outlines the approach and methods employed to investigate the research question and achieve the study’s objectives.
Let us break it further and comprehend from the depth of the subject –
The subsequent sections delve into the specific findings and analysis derived from the research study, providing a comprehensive exploration of the chosen topic within the realm of politics.
Example: In the social media and political participation study, the comparison with existing literature could involve discussing how the findings align with previous research that highlights the role of digital platforms in shaping political behaviours. The discussion could also address discrepancies or contradictions in the literature and propose potential explanations.
The summarisation part of the dissertation provides an overall idea of the work done till now in this section. Let us find out how.
Example: In a study investigating the relationship between corruption and economic development, the theoretical implications could involve challenging traditional theories that argue corruption hinders economic growth. The findings suggest a more nuanced relationship, highlighting that certain types of corruption may have varying effects on economic development. The practical implications include designing targeted anti-corruption policies that address specific forms of corruption to promote sustainable economic growth .
Example: In a study examining gender representation in political leadership positions, limitations could include a small sample size that limits generalizability or the potential for self-reporting bias in survey responses. Biases may arise from social desirability bias, where participants provide responses that conform to societal expectations. Acknowledging these limitations and biases is crucial for interpreting the findings accurately and recognising areas for improvement in future research.
Now its time to draw the underline; the best way to do it is –
Example: In a study examining the influence of media framing on public opinion, the recap may state the research objective of investigating how media coverage shapes public perceptions of political issues. The main findings include identifying the impact of media framing on the public’s interpretation and evaluation of political events, as evidenced by significant shifts in opinion after exposure to different frames.

Politics is such a vast phenomenon that several dissertation topics can be selected from political issues. However, that selection must have some strong basis and importance in the practical field. Another fact to be kept in mind when choosing a dissertation topic is that some political issues are highly controversial, and they may not be of much value in terms of research and writing.
It should be noted that it is important that the researcher thoroughly enjoys the dissertation topic they are working on.

Elon Musk has been sparring with Sir Keir Starmer over the past week after the prime minister accused social media platforms of allowing false claims to spread that prompted riots.
Friday 9 August 2024 21:15, UK
Elon Musk has branded Sir Keir Starmer a "hypocrite" over his approach to policing - while also goading the prime minister over a Labour MP's historical tweets.
Musk has been sparring with Sir Keir since last week after the prime minister blamed social media companies for allowing the spread of false claims that the Southport stabbings suspect was an asylum seeker - which prompted riots across the UK.
The billionaire tycoon, who has proclaimed free speech as a key goal of his takeover of Twitter, which he renamed X, has also expressed his disbelief that people who incite violence online are being prosecuted in the UK.
On Friday, Musk called Sir Keir a "hypocrite". He did this in response to the prime minister criticising Musk for alleging police in Birmingham had used " two-tier policing " - a phrase being used to describe the impression that some protests and demonstrations are dealt with more harshly than others.
Musk highlighted that Sir Keir criticised the policing of the Sarah Everard vigil protests. The Metropolitan Police later paid compensation following arrests at the protests.
The X owner said: "Out of curiosity, is this the same #TwoTeirKeir who himself criticized policing protests in 2021?
"What a hypocrite!"
Musk also said Sir Keir was "terrified of having to perform equal enforcement of the law for all in his own city" - and called for someone to tell the prime minister that Musk thought he was "craven".
Previously, Musk had highlighted another story which was critical of the Labour Party.
Newly elected Labour MP Lauren Edwards apologised on Thursday after a series of offensive tweets from more than a decade ago resurfaced.
She said she had made a "significant error of judgement" which she "deeply regrets", but did not directly cite the posts she meant.

Unverified screenshots of the since-deleted tweets were circulating online.
On Friday, Musk reposted a screenshot from another X user of one of the deleted tweets, along with Ms Edwards's apology.
It reads: "I want these f***ing Estonian r*****s out of my flat now!"
He did not make a comment on the screenshots. With 193.4 million followers, the post was quickly seen by millions, and reposted and commented on by thousands.
Musk's post has prompted criticism of Ms Edwards from around the world, with many saying she should be suspended and others saying she should be arrested.
One user said: "Top trolling."

Between 2008 and 2013, Australian-born Ms Edwards worked as a parliamentary researcher for Labour MPs including Barbara Keeley, Teresa Pearce, and Lisa Nandy.
On Thursday, Ms Edwards said: "I have recently been made aware of a small number of tweets that I posted on Twitter from over a decade ago, which I now deeply regret.
"They were a significant error of judgement on my part, and I apologise wholeheartedly.
"Since becoming a local councillor and more recently an MP, I have seen first-hand the importance of bringing communities together and working with tolerance and respect for all in our society.
"I pledge to use my platform to continue that important work and dedicate myself to serving all residents of Rochester and Strood."
Ms Edwards was elected as an MP at the general election in July with 15,403 votes.
She unseated Tory MP Kelly Tolhurst, who had represented the Kent constituency since 2015.

In the space of an hour or so on Wednesday, Kamala Harris both listened to and shushed pro-Palestinian activists, in a raw display of the fine line Democrats must walk while war rages between Israel and Hamas and a presidential election looms.
Harris met with pro-Palestinian activists in Detroit, a metropolitan area thought to house the largest concentration of Arab Americans, leading to competing claims about whether the vice president and presumptive presidential nominee agreed to consider an arms embargo on Israel.
The tumult reflects the tightrope Harris must navigate between two of her party’s natural constituencies, Arab Americans and Jews, as well as other groups on either side of Israel’s current war, and comes just a week and a half before the party’s convention in Chicago.
What should be a crowning moment for Harris, her coronation after a historically rapid ascent to the party nomination, threatens to be defined by planned pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian street rallies and protests. Additionally, families of hostages held by Hamas and advocates for the medical professionals tending to the tens of thousands of Palestinian wounded want prime time spots at the convention.
Harris’ experience on Wednesday offered a taste of how challenging it might be for her and other Democrats to navigate the tensions.
An hour after Harris reportedly told pro-Palestinian activists in their meeting that the carnage in Gaza was “horrific,” she shut down a pro-Palestinian chant at her rally, staring at the protesters and glowering in a clip that has gone viral.
“Kamala, Kamala, you can’t hide! We won’t vote for genocide,” a clutch of protesters chanted as Harris spoke at a hangar at an Detroit airport.
Harris at first acknowledged the protesters and their right to speak out. “I’m here because we believe in democracy. Everyone’s voice matters, but I am speaking now, I am speaking now,” she said, to applause.
She returned to her topic, the radical changes she said her rival, Donald Trump, would bring if he were elected, but the protesters chanted unabated for 30 seconds.
That prompted a sharp rebuke from Harris.
“You know what?” she said. “If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking.” She leaned back and glowered at the protesters as the rally erupted into applause and cheers.
The same dynamic played out before her speech. The founders of the “Uncommitted” movement, which encouraged Democrats to withhold votes in the primaries to register unhappiness with the Biden administration’s support of Israel, briefly met with Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
“The Vice President shared her sympathies and expressed an openness to a meeting with Uncommitted leaders to discuss an arms embargo,” Uncommitted said in a press release.
That led to calls for a clarification from pro-Israel figures, alarmed at the notion that a Harris administration would consider cutting defense assistance to Israel.
“If Kamala Harris does not directly and unequivocally reverse her reported promise to anti-Israel group in Michigan that she ‘is open to request’ to consider arms embargo to Israel, she will lose significant support from American Jews and Democrats that support Israel!” tweeted Abe Foxman, the former Anti-Defamation League national director who in 2020 campaigned for President Joe Biden.
Direct and unequivocal came soon enough. Harris “has been clear: she will always ensure Israel is able to defend itself against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups,” Phil Gordon, Harris’s national security adviser, said in a tweet. “She does not support an arms embargo on Israel. She will continue to work to protect civilians in Gaza and to uphold international humanitarian law.”
Shelley Greenspan, Biden’s Jewish outreach director, amplified Gordon’s statement. “The VP does *not* support an arms embargo on Israel,” she tweeted, quoting Gordon’s tweet .
A campaign aide to Harris pointed the Jewish Telegraphic Agency to Gordon’s statement and said Uncommitted’s claim that Harris expressed openness to an embargo was “inaccurate.”
“Since Oct. 7, the Vice President has prioritized engaging with Arab, Muslim, and Palestinian community members and others regarding the war in Gaza,” the aide said. “In this brief engagement, she reaffirmed that her campaign will continue to engage with those communities. The Vice President has been clear: she will always work to ensure Israel is able to defend itself against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups.”
Harris replaced Biden as the nominee last month after Biden pulled out of the race. She already had emerged as tougher on Israel than Biden, who has been close to the country for most of his career — at least rhetorically. That soon came into focus days after she assumed Biden’s mantle as the likely nominee.
After meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last month in Washington, Harris said in a press conference that she “will not be silent” in the face of Palestinian suffering.
That spurred hope among pro-Palestinian activists that Harris would be more amenable to their cause.
Even after Gordon shot down Uncommitted’s claim that Harris would entertain an arms embargo, the group appeared hopeful that she represented a shift, and did not back down from their claim that she was open to the idea.
“We found hope in Vice President Harris expressing an openness to meeting about an arms embargo, and we are eager to continue engaging because people we love are being killed with American bombs,” the group’s founders, Layla Elabed and Abbas Alawieh, said in a statement.
“When we told Vice President Harris that members of our community in Michigan are losing dozens and hundreds of their family members to Israel’s assault in Gaza, she said back: ‘It’s horrific,’” their statement said. “It’s clear to us that Vice President Harris can lead our country’s Gaza policy to a more humane place. We hope she will meet with us so we can move forward to discuss an arms embargo.”
Jewish and Arab Americans are both constituencies that vote in substantial majorities for Democrats. Harris will likely need both to best Trump in a close election, particularly states like Michigan that have significant Jewish and Arab American populations.
The constituencies have come together in the past — pushing back in 2017 against Trump’s ban on visitors from a number of Muslim majority countries , for instance. But they have largely stood against each other when it comes to the war in Gaza and how Israel has conducted it.
The tensions likely won’t abate before Aug. 19, when Democrats convene for their convention in Chicago. A number of pro-Palestinian groups have planned rallies. At least one pro-Israel group, the Israeli American Council, has applied to Chicago authorities to mount a pro-Israel march near the convention but has so far been rebuffed, Jewish Insider reported
Uncommitted wants the convention to give a prime-time speaking slot to medical professionals from Gaza. The families of American-Israeli hostages still held by Hamas also want a slot, having received one last month at the Republican convention .
A spokesperson for the Harris campaign did not respond to a query as to whether either or both requests would be granted.

T HEY BROKE through the hotel doors soon after midday on August 4th. Around 700 far-right activists had gathered outside the Holiday Inn Express in Manvers, a suburb in the deprived northern town of Rotherham, that morning. The mob chanted “get them out” and “burn it down” at asylum seekers housed inside and hurled chairs, planks and bricks at the police. Hotel staff erected barricades. One rioter started a fire in a doorway. It is remarkable no one was badly hurt.
The violence over the past two weeks in Britain has been horrifying. Sparked initially by the killing of three children on July 29th, the disorder took on a life of its own. Thousands have taken part in riots; violence has spread to 22 towns and cities. White nationalists have attacked mosques, asylum hotels and Muslim neighbourhoods and businesses. It is hard to judge how quickly it will stop. Fears of more trouble on August 7th were not realised as counter-demonstrators took to the streets. But further clashes are possible.
In some ways the violence, and some politicians’ ambiguous response to it, recalls earlier bouts of far-right brutality. But in its scale and the way it was organised, it points to something new.
The first major race riot in Britain took place in 1919. Up to the 1970s they flared periodically, usually in urban centres and poor mixed neighbourhoods. Most riots since, with a handful of exceptions, have been between black youths and the police. The last big one, in 2011, was sparked when police shot dead a black man in London; five other people lost their lives. But the past week has seen “the most widespread far-right violence in Britain’s post-war history”, says Joe Mulhall of Hope Not Hate, a campaign group.
That is a shock. Until recently the far right in Britain appeared a diminished force, caught between a decline in racist attitudes and a winner-takes-all electoral system that favours big political parties. Throughout the 20th century the far right tried, and largely failed, to combine street activism with success at the ballot box. The British Union of Fascists ( BUF ), founded by Oswald Mosley, an aristocratic antisemite, attracted some 50,000 supporters in the 1930s but failed to make any electoral headway. After the second world war, Mosley turned to aggressive street campaigning in migrant communities.
That was a tactic continued in the 1970s by the National Front, a white-nationalist group that campaigned against the arrival of Ugandan Asians. In an infamous clash, in 1977, 500 National Front members marched through Lewisham, a multicultural borough in London, under a banner that read “clear the muggers off the streets” before brawling with police. Bouts of street thuggery damaged the National Front’s appeal; the Lewisham riots came to be seen as the start of its decline. In the 2000s a successor outfit, the British National Party ( BNP ), won a handful of council seats and two seats in the European Parliament.
The electoral market for such extreme views, never that large, has steadily shrunk. Only 17% of people now say that to be truly British, it is very important to have been born in Britain, down from 48% in 1995. As a result a distinction has emerged between what academics term the “extreme right”, explicitly racist outfits like the National Front and the BNP , and the “radical right”, electoral movements whose ranks include populists like Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK .
In their different ways, both have made headway. The radical right is more prominent than ever. Mr Farage, who shares many of the extreme right’s concerns about immigration, crime and policing, is one of five Reform UK MP s in Parliament following the election on July 4th. Like other stars of the populist right, he gets top billing on GB News, a television channel. Extreme-right actors have meanwhile found new ways of tapping old grievances.
Whereas in the past the extreme right was organised through institutions with leaders, organisational structures and membership lists, it is now a looser constellation of influencers and networks. Its leading figure is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, a 41-year-old former football hooligan from Luton who uses the pseudonym Tommy Robinson. On July 27th he drew 30,000 people to a rally in London where speakers melded genuine local concerns, for example about the location of asylum hotels, with wild theories about Britain being an “occupied country”. Although he has not taken part in the unrest, he has used a large social-media following to whip it up.
The English Defence League ( EDL ), an anti-Muslim group founded by Mr Yaxley-Lennon, is supposedly defunct. But its former members continue to share messages. Another important network is Patriotic Alternative. Whereas those associated with the EDL tend to be older hooligans, Patriotic Alternative targets a younger audience by organising video-gaming events and fight clubs. Neither group has many official members but both have a large reach through apps, says Julia Ebner, an expert on extremism at Oxford University.
The recent unrest does not appear to have been centrally organised. Instead local activists chose a specific location, announced an intention to congregate there and waited for their plans to be amplified via apps. This decentralised approach explains one difference with past riots, which tended to happen in cities. But in other respects the internet encourages uniform behaviour, as troublemakers repeat slogans pushed online. “They oppress the wrong people,” parroted one youth about the policing of a protest in Manchester .
How might things play out from here? One scenario is that a heavy judicial response has the desired effect, and, perhaps with the help of some rain, the unrest peters out. In a previous role as director of public prosecutions, Sir Keir Starmer, now the prime minister, helped put almost 1,300 people involved in the 2011 riots in prison. The court cases have already begun; that some of the first to face justice wept in the dock does not suggest a movement hardened for a fight. Loose organisational networks may mean that far-right activity dissipates as quickly as it flared up.
Another scenario is that the unrest will continue, or mutate. The focus may move to mass rallies, or to protesting about those who have been prosecuted. Mr Mulhall notes that after a riot near an asylum hotel in Knowsley in 2023, similar events continued for six weeks. People who take part in violent protests may form stronger group identities, says Ms Ebner.
It will take longer to work out how the riots will shape the future of the right. Early polling shows that the great majority of voters abhor the violence, though some do not (see chart). Initially Mr Farage did not condemn the scenes, describing them as a reaction “to fear, to discomfort, to unease” shared by “tens of millions of people”. Leading Tories have been less equivocal, though some were slow to respond. British political history suggests that participating in street violence leads to electoral failure. The question today is whether finding excuses for it has the same effect. ■
