Come with photographer Si Barber as he captures the mood of a desperate and angry nation as it bears the full force of the recession and the fall out from the collapse of economic liberalism. “A visual critique of voodoo economics".
A disturbing bus ride along the hidden lanes and narrows of the UK, The Big Society examines Cameron’s Britain from the perspective of people trying to negotiate their way through the chaos brought about by the voodoo economics which took the country to the brink of bankruptcy in 2008.
The photographer travelled 12000 miles around the UK in three years, documenting not the movers or the shakers, but those surviving the will of the powerful: The shop workers made to dance for their employers each morning, the sex workers stumbling around the darkened streets of Bradford looking for punters, the skivers and the squaddies, the lucky and the losers.
