| Synopsis: |
New Labour surged to power eleven years ago on the promise to be 'whiter than white', but their record in office and abuse of trust have proved a bitter disappointment for millions who believed this pledge to clean up politics.Martin Bell, a journalist whose career has been made reporting from the world's unquiet corners, and one-time Independent MP elected on an anti-sleaze platform, asks - what went wrong? Wide-ranging and pulling no punches, "The Truth That Sticks" is a crushing analysis of a decade of deception, dishonesty and abuse of power, delivered with precision and great passion.It is a book that only Martin Bell could have written, and, as Martin's new postscript shows, it's a critique just as relevant now with Gordon Brown in charge. |

A History of Modern Britain
"A History of Modern Britain" confronts head-on the victory of shopping over politics. It tells the story of how the great political visions of New Jerusalem or a second Elizabethan Age, rival idealisms, came to be defeated by a culture of consumerism, celebrity and self-gratification.
