It doesn’t matter whether you’re in Birmingham Alabama, or Birmingham in the UK, the issues riling voters are the same - immigration, failing government and the economy. And they’re all connected. People tend to be a lot more tolerant when everybody is getting richer. But a sluggish economy which doesn’t serve the middle or the working class leads to resentment and to blame. A lot of that blame falls on immigrants, especially when failing leaders preside over a system which is chaotic and unsafe. With the issue now threatening to completely reshape British politics, Piers Morgan takes a look at it in detail - on both sides of the pond - alongside Konstantin Kisin, whose new documentary looks at asylum protests in the English town of Crowborough, The Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur, Brandon Tatum AKA The Officer Tatum and digital editor at the New Statesman, Oli Dugmore.
