About the book: If We Tolerate This by Daniel Trilling
A short, urgent and illuminating book about the rise of the far right in Britain, and what we can do to stop it.
'READ THIS BOOK!' - JAMES O'BRIEN
'A LUCID PRIMER ON HOW TO RESIST THE APPEASEMENT OF REFORM' -TLS
The far right is now mainstream in British politics.
In 2025 we saw the biggest far-right rally in Britain’s history, after a summer of flag-waving protests. The year before, racist mobs tried to attack mosques and hotels housing asylum seekers.
Something incredibly dangerous has been unleashed, yet our political class seems at best indifferent and at worst to welcome it.
In If We Tolerate This, Daniel Trilling explains how we arrived at this extraordinary moment and what we can do to change course before it’s too late.
About the Author: Daniel Trilling writes about nationalism, migration and human rights for publications including The London Review of Books, The Guardian and The New York Times. His work has been shortlisted for the Orwell Prize, the Political Book Awards and the Bread and Roses Award for Radical Publishing.
