Unchecked UK Information

Unchecked UK is building a network of diverse organisations across the UK who see sensible, properly-enforced protections as the framework for a decent society – where the food we eat and the things we buy are safe, where the natural environment is protected, and where our homes and workplaces are secure. We carry out research into the extent and impact of deregulation. We also document the growing enforcement gap, and the decline in enforcement activity over the last decade. Working with a variety of partners, Unchecked UK conducts regular polling to explore attitudes towards regulation – with both Leave and Remain voters, swing voters in the so-called ‘Red Wall’, and traditional Conservative voters in the ‘Blue Wall’. Additionally, we carry out strategic communications research exploring how people perceive the need for regulation, and how to communicate a way that activates support for protections. Our aim is to build a deeper understanding of the values and concerns of these voters, which can inform our work and our wider network. Ultimately, we aim to broaden political and public discussion around regulation, and to build momentum for strong protections which safeguard the things that matter to British people.
