Description

Populism on Trial: What Happens when Trust in Law Breaks Down

In recent years, a new form of populism has taken hold of our politics, threatening the foundations of our liberal democracy. Former barrister and judge Inigo Bing examines how the bonds of trust between the British people and our democratic institutions have broken down, and how the rule of law is under threat from populist politics.

Without the rule of law, power becomes unchecked and tyranny ensues. Bing argues that the rule of law is a fragile yet essential ingredient in our democracy, and that it must be vigorously upheld to prevent the rising tide of populism from eroding our institutions.
