A cultural reference point
We can deliver. We can do big things. The Olympics reminded us how great it feels to be successful… You know, I've spent three years trying to explain the Big Society...they did it beautifully in just three weeks.
We just think about the Olympics and Paralympic games. It was a triumph for Britain…Mo Farah. A true Brit. And a true hero for our country. We succeeded because of the outstanding volunteers, the Games Makers who are here with us today, all 70,000 Games makers. They put a mirror up to Britain and showed us the best of ourselves..

A year of youth unemployment reduces earnings 10 years later by about 6% and means that individuals spend an extra month unemployed every year up to their mid-30s. These effects diminish slowly in later adult life but are still present well into peoples' 40s..

56 Summary
1. Britain in 2012 is a complex, multi-faceted society in which resilience, tolerance and good humour can sit alongside pessimism and individualism.
2. In a distracted but connected world these aspects of society may increasingly influence the attitudes and behaviours of individuals
3. This presents some challenges for government communication, but it also creates opportunities
4. Some well-known lessons in good communication still hold true, but some new ones need to be learned
5. In the future, communication research will have to change to understand all of this; adapting old techniques and adopting new methods and technologies.
