The Road to Somewhere was published in 2017. A fault line in Britain existed, he suggested, between “Somewheres”, those people firmly connected to a specific community which consists of about half the population, “Inbetweeners”, and “Anywheres”, those usually living in cities, who are socially liberal and well educated, the latter being only a minority of about 20% to 25% of the total population, but who in fact had “over-ruled” the attitudes of the majority. Jonathan Freedland in The Guardian believed it could be argued New Labour had actually often had the Somewheres in mind in policies espousing an “Asbo culture” and the “prison works” attitude which they continued from Michael Howard’s earlier period as Home Secretary.
