Synopsis
'Stuart Weir is the first Englishman since Thomas Paine to understand the word "freedom".' - Greg Palast, author of "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy". Britain is a divided society and inequality is growing every day. In "Unequal Britain", Stuart Weir and his collaborators set out a shocking analysis of a country tearing itself apart. Weir offers a radical blueprint for change. He argues that New Labour's retreat from the welfare state makes a new form of protection for social and economic wellbeing, and proposes a Bill of Rights, guaranteeing economic, social and political rights for everyone.
