Matthew James Goodwin (born December 1981)[1] is a British political commentator and former academic whose last academic post was as professor of politics in the School of Politics and International Relations at the University of Kent, which he left in July 2024. His publications include National Populism: The Revolt Against Liberal Democracy (with Roger Eatwell) and Values, Voice and Virtue: The New British Politics. From September 2022 to 2023, he served on the Social Mobility Commission.[2]
Goodwin has become known for increasingly right-wing views and has a large following on X and Substack.[3] Some critics have argued that he has become an apologist for populism.[4][5]
