From culture wars to clickbait, itâs fair to say that politics has lost some of its integrity, and weâve all suffered as a result. If it hadnât almost wrecked the country with calamitous consequences in nearly every sector of public life, it would be funny. Weâve let our standards drop â but we deserve better.
Jess Phillips believes in democracy, and the people she meets give her cause for optimism even if sometimes politicians really (really) donât. At once a laugh-so-you-donât-cry takedown of the state of Westminster in recent years and a rallying battle cry for bringing truth back to politics, this book will make you angry, cheer you up and give you hope.
