Asked in a recent poll to summarise Britain in a word, 'broken' was the people's top choice. This brokenness is concrete stuff: crumbling bridges, sewage-filled rivers, failing computer systems, abandoned rail projects. But it's also bundled with the collective stories we tell about what it means to be a nation, and who belongs in it.
