What's fair? The public's view

    What would a fair society look like?

    As the Coalition Government launches it's 'simpler, fairer'  approach to welfare, research by NatCen highlights what the public thinks a fair society should look like.

    View the presentation 'What's fair? The public's view' that our Chief Executive, Penny Young, gave to No 10.

    Drawing on data from the 2009 British Social Attitudes Report, the presentation covers:

    • What would a "fair" society look like?
    • How does society match up against this ideal?
    • What principles do people use when thinking about fairness?
