We work to investigate and illuminate the crisis of democracy in Britain – and analyse how its failings can be healed.
We bring together outsider voices and diverse opinions.
We do deep investigative journalism exposing the gap between politicians' rhetoric and action.
We publish on and from all the British nations while questioning the nature of the UK.
Unconstrained by party political loyalties, we ask how we as citizens can secure our liberty, human rights, self-government and real democracy.
