Description: THE Instant Sunday Times Bestseller British politics is broken. Anyone sitting down to watch the news will get the sense that something has gone terribly wrong. We have prime ministers who detonate the economy secretaries of state who are intellectually incapable of doing the job and M Ps who seem temperamentally unsuited to the role. Expertise is denigrated. Lies are rewarded. And deep - seated long - lasting national problems go permanently unresolved. Most of us have a sense that the system doesn't work but we struggle to articulate exactly why. Our political and financial system is cloaked in secrecy archaic terminology ancient custom and impenetrable technical jargon. Lifting the lid on British politics How Westminster Works and Why It Doesn't exposes every aspect of the system in a way that can be understood and challenged from the heights of Downing Street to the depths of the nation's newsrooms from the hallways of the civil service to the green benches of the Commons. Based on interviews with some of the leading voices in politics from former occupants of No.10 to key figures in Whitehall Westminster and Fleet Street Ian Dunt provides exactly what people in power have always tried to avoid: a full description of the mechanisms of British government. And a vision of how we can fix it.
