Everything about Middle England totally explained
Middle England is a socio-political and geographical term which originally indicated the central region of
England, now almost always referred to as the
Midlands.
The primary meaning of the term is now a
political or
sociological one (as is also the case for
Middle America and
Middle Australia). It principally indicates the
middle classes or lower-middle classes of non-urban England, but also carries connotations of "
Deep England". The
BBC described the Kent town of
Tunbridge Wells as the "spiritual home" of Middle England.
The term is used by journalists to refer to the presumed views of mainstream English people as opposed to minorities of all types (the rich or the poor, ethnic minorities, gays and lesbians, the politically active, the
intelligentsia, etc.) In particular it's increasingly used to denote the more
right-wing views of those who are not in such minorities;
Daily Mail readers, for example, are often characterised as being from Middle England as are members of the
Countryside Alliance..Residents of Middle England are also sometimes referred to as the "silent" or "moral majority" in the British media.
