An Evening with Daniel Trilling

About this event

Join us for an evening with journalist Daniel Trilling to celebrate the release of If We Tolerate This: How the British Establishment Made the Far Right Respectable, an urgent and illuminating book about the rise of the far right in Britain, and what we can do to stop it.

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.

'Racism and the rise of the far right in Britain are often discussed but rarely understood. Daniel Trilling is an exception . . . his voice must be heard' – OWEN JONES, author of Chavs

'Combining forensic enquiry with moral passion, Daniel Trilling has emerged as one of our most intrepid and resourceful reporters' – PANKAJ MISHRA, Windham-Campbell Prize-winning author of The World After Gaza

Daniel will talk about his new book before an audience Q&A and book signing.

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.
