This revised and updated eleventh edition of the bestselling textbook Politics UK is an indispensable introduction to British politics. It provides a thorough and accessible overview of the institutions and processes of British government, an excellent grounding in British political history and an incisive introduction to the issues and challenges facing Britain today.

This edition welcomes rigorously updated revised chapters. It delivers excellent coverage of contemporary events, with significant new material covering the tumultuous end of the dominant Conservative party era under Johnson; the brief and contrasting Truss and Sunak premierships, followed by the seismic Labour general election victory for Keir Starmer in 2024 and the first stuttering steps of the new administration; the continued cost of living crisis and inflation; continued challenges around the UK’s place in a post-Brexit world and position on the invasion of Ukraine, climate change, and much more.

Other features of the new edition include:

A wide range of illustrative material, boxes and case studies providing illuminating examples alongside the analysis.
A comprehensive ‘who’s who’ of politics in the form of Profile boxes featuring key political figures.
Point of View pieces containing short articles on salient and pressing topics, written by distinguished commentators including Sir Anthony Seldon, Claire Ainsley, David Gauke and James O’Brien.
Online resources including interactive questions per chapter, flashcards of key terms, annotated weblinks, new discussion questions, video interviews with politicians and more.

With chapters written by highly respected scholars in the field and contemporary articles on real-world politics from well-known political commentators, this textbook is an essential guide for all students of British politics.
