Review
The world is full of great stories that need to be told. The sad thing is that the mainstream media dig out fewer and fewer of them - which is why the old fashioned muckraking of The Sauce is so important. --(Nick Davies, author, Flat Earth News)
The Sauce is a tasty blend of gutsy reporting, provocative analysis and passionate argument. In the best tradition of campaigning journalism, it speaks truth to power about immigration, human rights and much else besides. A great read. --(Philippe Legrain, author, Aftershock and Immigrants: Why your country needs them)

Product Description
Journalist Brendan Montague turned his back on Fleet Street to dedicate his life to a single passion: reporting. One moment he was running up expenses at The Sunday Times, the Daily Mail and the Sunday Mirror. The next, Lehman Brothers collapsed. It was time to cast an investigative spotlight on bankers, polluters, arms manufacturers. Brendan set up the radical news blog, The Sauce. But the political landscape remained as still as a millpond. Were his lofty ideals of reporting the collapse of capitalism and the dawn of a new world delusional? What would this muckraker find in the grubby reality around him? The Sauce exposes Russian nuclear waste barons, breaks the Vestas occupation story and shreds Tara Palmer-Tomkinson's first novel. The blog takes on High Court judges, the News of the World, gangsters, neo-Nazis and even graffiti artist Banksy. A Year on The Sauce is a limited edition collection of stories from the most edgy radical news blog in the UK. Could this lone writer possibly be the next George Orwell or is he just an eccentric tilting at windmills? Brendan is among a handful of professionally trained journalists on the radical left: all he needs is a revolution.
