Book Description
Publication Date: 3 Dec 2009
It is dizzying what has happened in the 2009 Parliament. It started in September when the government dropped the economic ball with the mother of financial crashes. And that was for starters. Never before have so many MPs resigned and have tax payers got such entertainment value out of their elected representatives in the worst year in British politics of the Millenium! In "Annus Horribilis", the "Times" political sketch writer Ann Treneman savours this unique Parliamentary year in her widely admired witty and sarcastic style, capturing the Hogarthian display of playground spats, bickering and serious people who really cant resist the opportunity of making a fool of themselves - duck pond and all.
