Synopsis
MPs' expenses in 2009. Phone hacking in 2011. 'Plebgate' in 2012. If a good speech or a groundbreaking new policy fails to get people talking, you can be sure a juicy scandal will do the trick. Our instantaneous news culture of social networks, blogs and Twitter feeds means politicians now, more than ever, can find themselves the focus of every journalist in the country in what seems like the blink of an eye. But behind this hostile media landscape, behind the storm of camera flashes and the clamour of opponents on all sides baying for blood, are the politicians themselves. With the benefit of personal interviews and access to senior officials including Vince Cable, Andrew Mitchell and Jeremy Hunt, Rob Wilson MP details what it's really like to be at the heart of a relentless media onslaught. Describing both the emotional upheaval and the strategies employed as politicians try to navigate through careers seemingly hanging by a thread, Wilson reveals the extraordinary political and personal stories behind the public drama; the real impact on those who live in the eye of the storm.

Hardback. Etat : Mint. Etat de la jaquette : Mint. First Edition. This mint unread copy is bound in cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine, tight, white, bright and square. The unclipped dust wrapper is in mint condition. Politicians today live in an age in which no action or word remains beyond the scrutiny of their peers. The media landscape is such that technological developments have revolutionised communication, making even the minutiae of modern politics potentially hazardous to the uninitiated and the untrained. With the rise of Twitter, blogging and the social networks, governments, parties and politicians are never far away from the next damaging, potentially career-ending, crisis. In this book, MP Rob Wilson looks at recent crises and scandals in British politics from the perspective of the people at the heart of the story. It details just what it is like to face the media and a political onslaught, how senior politicians attempt to battle through as their careers face ruin, and how the experience affects them, and their families, as human beings. Written with the benefit of in-depth access to senior politicians including George Osborne, William Hague, Charles Clarke, Jeremy Hunt, Vince Cable and Jacqui Smith, this extraordinary book reveals the political and the personal stories behind the public dramas, and the impact on those who live in the eye of the storm.
