Poison Heads

In Poison Heads, Jonny English writes of his first years in the Manchester Police Force at the time of the IRA bombings. A Police Constable who was actually there and on the scene, English “tells all” about life in the Manchester Police Force as it really was during the 1970s: love, corruption, violence and more. This is the true story, told by a man who was there!

English shares his early family years with his inspiring globe-trotting Gran, then in his own words tells of his journey from family to Police Training to life in the Force. Now his 25-year pact with the Official Secrets Act is over, he can spill the beans about the “Poison Heads” - the bent professionals of law and order he worked with every day.
“In the Force my eyes were opened and I was to view many things in life quite differently — especially how people really are, the reality of death, the bliss of love and, most of all, what it takes to survive on the streets of a city.”
