Synopsis: The Britain of ELECTION NIGHT is a society where the public are disillusioned with traditional politicians and the “Establishment”.
Many believe in a new optimistic rhetoric from a fictitious firebrand socialist party, the Progressive Social Alliance.
Others put their faith in a new populist far-right movement, the New Britain Party, headed by former newspaper baron Dominic Drummond (Bruce Payne).
As the election results pour in, five friends gather to watch the TV coverage. It’s a drink-fuelled night that should be a huge celebration of victory. But outside far-right NBP supporters are rioting and claiming a rigged election.
Three people desperately seeking shelter from the violence knock on the door as the police lose control.
