The National Centre for Social Research's British social attitudes survey shows a country that has become less nationalistic and jingoistic and, most sharply, less proud of British history.
Younger generations' idea of Britishness revolves around a civic identity rather than an ethnic one, with only 41% of those under 35 feeling it important to be born in Britain.
Instead, there is an emergence of new shared references and experiences, fostering civic notions of belonging, relatability and kinship through art, literature, and sport.
The gap between politics, media, and the public continues to widen, reflecting a progressive shift in attitudes towards refugees, immigration, and historical narratives in Britain.
