CHOSEN BY WATERSTONES AS ONE OF THEIR BEST POLITICS BOOKS OF 2024
From culture wars to clickbait, it's fair to say that politics has lost some of its integrity, and we've all suffered as a result. If it hadn't almost wrecked the country with calamitous consequences in nearly every sector of public life, it would be funny. We've let our standards drop - 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) don't. At once a laugh-so-you-don't-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.
Rezension:
There's a reason why Phillips's books end up on bestseller lists, and that is her lack of stuffiness, her sharp wit and don't-fuck-with-me attitude. The writing here is conversational, irreverent and deceptively clever; it's as if she and her reader are sharing a bottle of wine on a Friday night, leading to a level of candour that a more cautious politician might view as reckless but is very much Phillips's USP.
