red walls

Scarlet vertical surfaces

Red walls are walls painted or covered in red, often chosen for dramatic effect in interior design.

The phrase also has political meaning: red walls refers to regions with long traditions of voting for left-wing parties, particularly Labour strongholds in northern England.

The Conservatives broke through the red wall in 2019.
