Abstract
This chapter draws on the Covid-19 Pandemic as a contemporary case study. This chapter argues that moments of socio-political rupture and risk are necessary for the summoning of meaningful social movement to lobby state governments to tackle social inequality and exclusion. To contextualise this discussion, the exacerbation of global ruptures and the intensification of free-market economics will be explored as the mechanical and ideological cogs that have enabled the rise of poverty, deprivation, and social inequalities to intensify across British communities.
