The connections between one of the founders of British cultural studies, Richard Hoggart, and the poet Tony Harrison have been little studied. However, both of these writers were what Richard Hoggart termed “scholarship boys”: they came from working-class backgrounds and were upwardly mobile through education. It is often thought that Hoggart and Harrison solely represent a kind of left-labourism that tries to provide state support for the working classes. Yet, what this article seeks to expand on is how both Hoggart and Harrison were actually staunch critics of the Welfare state and how it sought to manage the lives of working people. By analyzing their shared use of the linguistic phrase, “them and us,” in their work, I trace how both writers engaged in critiques of the mid-century Welfare state as well as late twentieth-century neoliberal politics and the consumer society. Specifically, I look at how Harrison’s transgressive poetics registers a more sympathetic relation to working people in a way that Hoggart’s nuanced prose cannot.
