We’d like to believe that effort matters to what we attain in life. In fact our belief in meritocracy depends on that. But what if how much effort people spend itself depends on your social background?

“After 20 years working on inequality, I can confidently say that class - indeed class war - has never been more evident in my lifetime” – @faizashaheen.bsky.social in our latest blog post #LSEInequalitiesBlog
To counter elite capture we must reinvigorate class consciousness
Greater "class consciousness" may be the key to countering the Far Right, elite capture and policies such as welfare cuts
