About this title

Synopsis

Like the critically acclaimed Bremner, Bird and Fortune series on Channel 4, You Are Here picks away at the scabs of international politics with the voice and credibility of Rory and the two Johns, and appeals to an audience hungry for a mix of entertainment and information—tough facts made funny. The book lampoons the contradiction at the heart of Britain since Tony Blair became Prime Minister in 1997. In the fog of confusion created by New Labour, it can be difficult to discover the real truth. After all, why spin if you don't want people to get dizzy? What the British reader needs is this witty and original map explaining how it all connects, a guide to how we got here.
