Publisher Description
Against the odds, former steel worker Harry Perkins has led the Labour party to a stunning victory. Now he's going to dismantle Britain's nuclear warheads, bring finance under public control and dismantle the media empires.
But the establishment isn't going down without a fight. As MI5 conspires with the city and press barons to bring Perkins down, he finds himself caught up in a no-holds-barred battle for survival.
Described as 'the political novel of the decade' when it was first published, A Very British Coup is as fresh and relevant now as it ever has been.
Customer Reviews
A very small seed.
A nice, interesting and at times riveting story, BUT it bears no relationship to the adaptations of it. Do not buy if you have watched TV and want to now read the book - it isn't the same thing at all and it is a bit much changing the title or bye-line to imply it is. You have been warned.
