Want a 🧵 that summarises the key takeaways from our Disruptive Delivery report. @InstituteGC Executive Director of Politics @ryan_wain has you covered! See 👇 and read full report here:
Mainstream politics in the West is in freefall. In 2000, it won 75% of votes. Today? Just 50%. Meanwhile, populist right-wing parties keep rising. We asked 12,000 voters across 🇬🇧🇫🇷🇩🇪🇺🇸🇨🇦🇦🇺 why—and how to fix it. Enter: Disruptive Delivery🔥

Voters are demanding change but mainstream politics isn’t delivering. Across 6 major democracies @InstituteGC latest research with @PeterKellner1 & @DeltapollUK highlights the rise of outsiders but also the chance to build a new coalition. The message: Disrupt or be disrupted.
Disrupt or be disrupted. That is the message to political parties from 12,000 voters from the UK, USA, Australia, Germany, France and Canada surveyed by TBI. Explore our latest report, in partnership with @PeterKellner1:

“Achieving genuine transformation will demand sustained, multifaceted efforts. The chancellor has fired the starting gun – now the race to reform begins.” @InstituteGC reaction the budget here 👇 #FutureofBritain
This ‘go big’ #Budget launched the government’s reform agenda, but the main focus was quick-to-implement tax changes & shorter-term spending plans to restore public services. But seeds of more ambitious change are emerging. Now the race to reform begins.
