Description
The 2017 parliament marked a turning point for Labour, with its left-wing faction closer to power than ever before. However, by the time of the 2019 election, the party was further away from government than it had been in years. This book provides an inside look at the Labour Party during one of its most tumultuous periods, drawing on exclusive access to both leaders' inner circles. It reveals a party torn apart by factionalism and ideological differences, struggling with crisis and indecision. The narrative is marked by intense conflicts, from plotting within the party to accusations of anti-Semitism, and explores the impact of these tensions on the nation. At its heart is Jeremy Corbyn, a figure whose unique blend of principles and leadership style has left an indelible mark on British politics.
