Things Can Only Get Dickensian: An Analysis of Media Coverage of Britain’s Cost of Living Crisis
Original language description
The period following the 2008 financial crisis saw the UK enter a period of austerity, exacerbated by the wideranging welfare spending cuts of consecutive Conservative governments. Nevertheless, when it appeared thatthe situation could not become more dire for struggling Britons, the country found itself in the grips of a cost ofliving crisis precipitated by several concurrent developments such as inflation, an energy crisis, and the falloutfrom Brexit. Using qualitative thematic analysis, this article examines coverage of the crisis by the British press byexploring how individual newspapers on both the political right and left have chosen to report on the indicators,causes, and victims. The aim is to establish whether the standard political leanings of the papers apply here, orwhether the situation is so exceptional in its urgency that the usual stereotypes (strivers/scroungers, deserving/ undeserving poor) have been abandoned for a more unified discourse.
