Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The political class has never been popular. Shakespeare wrote of 'scurvy politicians', while their shortcomings have been a staple of satire over the centuries, from Swift and Hogarth to Spitting Image and Steve Bell. And in recent years the political class has given its opponents plenty of ammunition, with 'cash for questions', Tony Blair accused of misleading the public over Iraq, and then the expenses scandal producing anger and criticism on a hitherto unknown scale. We may have a low opinion of politicians but we can't do without them, andhere Peter Riddell, for decades one of the most astute and respected of all observers of the Westminster scene, presents the case for their defence, offering a series of recommendations for rehabilitating the political class in the eyes of voters. This is a thought-provoking, entertaining and acutely observed defence of politicians, at a time when they need it more than ever before. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR003498829
