| 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. |

Errol Flynn washes up on Jamaica in his storm-wrecked yacht. Ida Joseph has set her heart on marrying Flynn. Flynn and Ida do not marry, but Ida bears Flynn a daughter, May, who will meet her father but once. This is a tale of passion and recklessness, of two generations of women and their battles for love and survival, and of a nation struggling to rise to the challenge of hard-won independence. The book has been selected as one of Richard and Judy's Summer Reads 2008.
