Source: Ipsos MORI, 'Attitudes to Immigration' (forthcoming) Source: Ipsos MORI, 'Attitudes to Immigration' (forthcoming). Issues Index question: “What do you see as the most/other important issues facing Britain today?”. Issues Index base: representative sample of c.1,000 British adults age 18+ each month, interviewed face-to-face in home. Home Office statistics based on ‘Year ending’.

Locality Matters Nation could be the local writ large (Applegate 1990; Confino 1997; Zimmer 2013) Local could be a passive space inscribed by national discourses But then, why do opinions on national issues vary by locale, AND Why are demographic changes to the nation experienced so differently by locale?
