What are the political implications of the left's neglect of class politics, and how has this contributed to the rise of parties like Reform?

The book critiques the political exploitation of the white working class's anxieties, particularly concerning immigration. Budd argues that age, not class, is a stronger predictor of attitudes toward immigration, and that the portrayal of working-class hostility is often a tactic used to legitimize elite prejudices. This neglect of class-based issues has allowed parties like Reform to gain traction by falsely positioning themselves as champions of the working class.
