What to expect
"Full of nourishing facts with which to nobble your reform voting relatives." - STEWART LEE
In today's climate of highly polarised, culture war-fuelled and personality driven politics, this is the book we all need.
Award-winning comedian, satirist and political writer, Cody Dahler explores the most pertinent political head-scratchers affecting us all
· Why are people voting for Reform UK?
· Why did we Brexit?
· What is the House of Lords and is everyone in there an arsehole?
· Why are our rivers full of sh*t?
· What's to stop us becoming like America?
· Why do our PMs change so often; and why do we use a lettuce to measure their success?
Cody's brilliantly witty and fact-filled deep-dives into the history and origins of our current political malaise are as informative as they are fun - and crucially will stop you, the reader, from feeling like a thicky thicky dumb dumb in front of all your mates.
Many of the topics covered in the book come directly from Cody's rapidly growing army of over 2 million followers across all platforms, who look to him to make sense of the state of British politics and help them figure out if we're ever going to find a way out of it.
