Back to one of my regular moans about democracy measurement - present bias. According to VDEM the UK's 'level of liberal democracy' is now lower than any time since 1945 - a period of time in which business owners and graduates had multiple votes and during which the Troubles occurred. WRONG.

Denmark has *far* worse outcomes - economic, social and integration - than the UK. Just a fantasyland for those who want an excuse for their own xenophobia and/or are incapable of doing the hard work of confronting the UK's real problems. www.thetimes.com/world/europe...

Interested in why public anti-immigrant sentiment is so geographically concentrated? Here's some work with @denis-cohen.bsky.social testing a new theory on how regional labour market risks and inter-regional migration shape long-term spatial polarisation. Just out in @bjpols.bsky.social 👇
