About this title

Synopsis

Today’s MPs are often thought to be trapped in a London-centred view of life and to lack any ?hinterland” of life beyond politics, and any fundamental beliefs, but this book looks at political life from a northern perspective. Starting in the Manchester area and following the author's 35 years as MP for England’s northernmost constituency and a leading figure in the Liberal Democrats, the book cover key stages in the party’s growth, including the 1970s Lib-Lab pact and Paddy Ashdown’s leadership, as well as what the philosophy of Liberalism is all about. His experiences overseeing Britain’s intelligence and security services over more than a decade are presented and the need to make parliament more effective is outlined.

About the Author

Alan Beith has been an MP for Berwick?England’s most northerly constituency?for 35 years and is the longest-serving Liberal Democrat in Parliament.
