Description

Behind the scenes of Ireland's 2016-20 coalition government lies a story of intrigue and drama. In this candid account, Cabinet minister Shane Ross reveals the bitter power struggles between old allies, the crises that brought the coalition to the brink of collapse, and the complex personal relationships within the group of fifteen individuals who formed the last government. With great humour and insight, Ross recounts the secret deals, backroom negotiations, and high-stakes decisions that shaped Ireland's politics during this period. From the rescue of Irish football to the downfall of Olympic chief Pat Hickey, Ross offers a unique glimpse into the inner workings of the government, revealing what really happens behind closed doors. This book provides a fascinating look at one of Ireland's most tumultuous periods in recent history, and is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in politics and current affairs.
