Media Reviews
Hilarious, insightful and has that rare quality of making politics fun. A brilliant book everyone should read, whoever you vote for. -- Owen Jones, author of The Establishment
Even Conservatives will like this -- Roland White * The Sunday Times *
Reading this book is like reliving the last twenty years as a Labour supporter. John O'Farrell has, in his own unique and hilarious way, captured the highs and lows, pride and embarrassment, joy and frustration of being Labour. -- Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London
O'Farrell hasn't lost his touch. There are laughs as well as large doses of common sense. -- Chris Mullin * Guardian *
John O'Farrell couldn't be unfunny if he tried but this book is even better than his famous take on Labour's 18 years in opposition. Hilarious and insightful in equal measure this is vintage stuff from Maidenhead's finest political brain. -- Alan Johnson
