As Brexit revealed, Britain’s ability to project a confident, internationalist image abroad is shaped by and rooted in our domestic priorities; and it rests on the consent of its citizens. Now at the centre of public debate around both ‘Levelling Up’ and of ‘Global Britain’, in this book Lisa Nandy brings together the international and the local to tell a story about how we got here and how we might go about improving things for those left behind at the same time as mending a broken reputation abroad. However disconnected our international systems have become from working people here and across the world, Nandy argues, the problems we feel locally have global solutions. Lucid, clear-eyed and ultimately hopeful, this book will set out how we restore values, energy and direction in our politics and offer a snapshot of an alternative future that remains within our grasp.
