Electoral Politics / Government Policy
As anti-migrant, anti-equalities, anti-abortion, misogynistic and anti-LGBTQI rhetoric in electoral campaigning are increasingly interlinked, we reflect this in the coverage below which also includes information on the influence of the Christian Right as well as the religious Right generally.
Anti-Fascism and the Far Right
Policing / Prisons / Criminal Justice System
Asylum / Migration / Citizenship
Borders and Internal Controls / Reception and Detention / Deportations
