Vital. It should serve as a wake-up call to all of us ALASTAIR CAMPBELL
A lively, forensic, engrossing, sometimes entertaining, often disturbing and always unflinching interrogation of whats gone wrong with our legislatureANDREW RAWNSLEY, OBSERVER
The extraordinary turmoil we have seen in British politics in the last few years has set records. With the last government, we had the fastest turnover of ministers in our history and more MPs suspended from the House than ever. Rules were flouted repeatedly, sometimes in plain sight. The government seemed unable to escape the brush of sleaze. And just when we thought it was all going to calm down a bit, another scandal would break.
Having spent years as Chair of the Committees on Standards and Privileges, Chris Bryant had a front-row seat for the battle over standards in our politics. Taking us inside the Pugin-carpeted corridors of Westminster, from the prime ministers office to the Strangers Bar, he examines how parliament got into this mess and suggests how it might – at last – get its house in order.
