He discusses the abandonment of the working class by the Labour Party and warns of what he calls the 'Lebanon-isation' of Britain due to hard multiculturalism. Embery highlights the growing disconnect between the political elite and ordinary people, and he calls for a reevaluation of free expression in the face of rising identity politics.
