Product Description
Parliament is reeling from the expenses scandal, and an increasingly apathetic public can see no difference between Labour, Tory, and the Liberal Democrats. In British Politics: A Beginner's Guide, Richard Grayson asks if the blame for this lies at Westminster, or if we actually get the politicians we deserve. Covering the structure of the British government, the Civil Service, political parties, the media, the EU, and the 'special relationship' with the US, this incisive introduction reveals the complex interactions that determine everything from the taxes we pay to when we should put out the wheelie bin.

For anyone who needs a politics book to help them understand a topic or for research this is a brilliant book to use. I needed information for my politics subject at uni and it was easy to read and understand. It was written in a way that means anyone can pick it up and read it and know what it is talking about without even knowing anything about politics before. Definitely would recommend it for your studies.

I bought this book after deciding it was high time I could understand what goes on in Westminster to run our country. The book is well written but it could really do with a glossary as I struggled with some of the terms they used. If you have a basic knowledge already then this may be a good buy but for absolute beginners ( i.e ME!!! ) it was quite difficult to understand sometimes.
