He explores the welfare regime at the end of 10 years of Conservative-led government and before the COVID-19 pandemic; the social democratic government that preceded the Conservative ascendancy after 2010 and what New Labour achieved in terms of income inequality, wealth inequality, poverty, social mobility, inheritance, and other areas; the history of Labour's ideas about the welfare state, including its key thinkers; the future issues of aging, the changing nature of work, and climate change and possible solutions; and the impact of COVID-19.
