In recent years a new form of populism has taken hold of our
politics, turning Britain into an increasingly intolerant and
fractious country. As our society grapples with the threat posed by
terrorism and the uncertainty that has followed the Brexit
referendum and the coronavirus pandemic, cracks have begun to
appear in the very foundations of our liberal democracy; the values
that we once regarded as sacred are being called into question.
Former barrister and judge Inigo Bing examines how the bonds of
trust between the British people and our democratic institutions
have broken down and the principles that underpin the rule of law
are under threat from populist politics. Populism on Trial analyses
how politicians have shown an increasing contempt for the principle
of judicial independence as they attempt to exercise unrestrained
power. Bing seeks to remind us that without law we have only power,
and power without law is tyranny. He demonstrates how the rule of
law is a fragile yet essential ingredient in our democracy and
argues that it must be vigorously upheld or it will be cast aside
by the rising tide of populism
