MNHQ here: do you have thoughts about how divided we are (or aren't) as a nation? Tell the Together Coalition what you think

Hello

We've been approached by the /Together Coalition to ask MNers if you'd be up for filling in their survey about 'what divides us, what unites us and what will bring us close together'.

Here's what they have to say:

"Should we worry about how socially divided we are?"

"Do you worry about how divided our society is becoming, or how divided it could become? Do you think the Covid crisis has brought us closer together as a society, or pushed us further apart?"

"Previous research has found 62% of people in the UK believe that “As a society, we have lost the ability to discuss politics without getting angry and abusive.” Do you agree?"

"The /Together coalition is asking for people’s views on these big questions."

"/Together is a coalition of organisations – from household names like the NHS and the Scouts to local community organisations – which is aiming to bring people together and bridge divides, to help build a kinder, closer and more connected society."

"Talk/together is the UK’s biggest-ever conversation about what divides us, what unites us and what will bring us closer together. You can take the Talk/together survey here."

"Let us know your views on this and the work of the /Together campaign."

Do take the survey if you fancy it - and as ever, we'd be interested to know what you think!

Thanks
MNHQ

@Hayeahnobut

One of the people behind this group is Matthew Elliott, CEO of the Vote Leave campaign, the man behind all the lies. Does he need a survey to tell him how divided the UK is?

There are some credible names behind the group, but I struggle to believe this person has any good intentions at all, and is more likely to steal our data than reunite our fractured nation. Perhaps a representative could post further information to allay our concerns?

Hello Hayeahnobut: /Together has asked me to give you this response

"/Together is independent of party politics and is entirely neutral on issues such as Brexit. Those who are involved in /together span political divides and come from a wide range of backgrounds. What they share is a belief that whilst we might disagree on the substance of political debates, we need to find ways to have kinder and more respectful conversations with those who have different opinions to our own. We believe that message is as important now as it has ever been."
