This article examines the current state of liberal democracy in the UK amidst global trends of democratic backsliding. It argues that both liberal and conservative ideologies can contribute to threats against democratic principles, evident during the conflict over civil liberties during the Covid-19 pandemic. The author compares the UK's democracy to that of India, considering the historical significance of each, while pointing out that despite India's challenges, it has maintained a functioning democracy. The article outlines various factors contributing to democratic erosion in the UK, such as political polarization, electoral distortions, and a lack of public accountability. It examines the Labour Party's recent electoral successes, which were achieved without a clear mandate from the populace, showcasing the flaws of the first-past-the-post electoral system. The text highlights issues like broken promises, policy shifts not reflected in their manifesto, and incidents of 'two-tier justice' which undermine the rule of law. Additionally, it addresses the challenges posed by rising multiculturalism and how it is affecting national identity and unity. The author concludes by noting a shift in political divides focusing on cultural identity rather than traditional economic ideologies, emphasizing growing distrust towards political elites and established parties. The piece warns that unless these issues are addressed, the UK may be pushed into the categories of 'flawed democracy' or worse in future evaluations of democratic health.
