Revue de presse

For over two decades Glyn Mathias was an ITN reporter, lobby correspondent and authoritative political editor at a time when News At Ten was Britain s most popular news programme, with viewing figures in excess of 10 million. A sharp-elbowed operator who could hack it with the best, on the eve of the Malvinas war he was the one who got to interview Margaret Thatcher. The writing is breezy and often funny. The monarchy is described as a stage army of curious characters irrelevant to the body politic who live in a different time zone from the rest of us. And apparently there are three types of Tory candidates men, women and those prepared to stand in Wales. An enjoyable insight into the lives of those in power and even more so those who try to hold them to account. --Gwyn Griffiths, Morning Star
