Britons’ trust in politics has fallen significantly since Covid, report finds
- Only 6% of the British public have full trust in the current political system, while 89% support constitutional reform.
- The survey of 8,000 people conducted by Focaldata for the Institute for Public Policy Research found that support for democratic reform is strongest in the UK's former industrial heartlands, including "red wall" constituencies.
- Trust in politics has declined significantly since Covid-19, potentially as a result of ongoing political scandals, with people feeling that politics and parliament fail to represent them properly and deliver on promises made at election time.
