It's Politics... but Not as We Know it cover

* Nick Ferrari is one of LBC's star presenters, with a devoted following and a wide appeal beyond his regular listener base.; * Utterly irreverent but always insightful, this book gets to the heart of where we're going wrong in this country.; * Recently launched nationwide, LBC is growing as a brand - it was especially visible in the debates on Europe between Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage, hosted by Nick Ferrari.; * The station has a fanatical listener base in London, and is now filling a gap in the national market for topical talk radio.; * Series of seven polemics will receive huge marketing support from LBC, with a major on-air and online advertising campaign, and will attract widespread media attention and comment.

The British people are seeking a new kind of politics; and Nick Ferrari has a plan.Do our political leaders embody your hopes and dreams? More importantly, when was the last time you looked at a politician and thought, 'That's someone I'd like to have a drink with'? Chances are, not recently enough. Let's look at the state of politics today. Our representatives sit in a Westminster bubble; the vast majority are one-track careerists who've never held down a proper job. Is it any wonder that people feel disconnected from all of this? This book is about the gap between politicians and the people. It's about being real, being honest, and - crucially, this is Britain after all - keeping a sense of humour. And it's the only place to find out why Boris needs to know his beans from his bubbles and Diane Abbott wants a new bread roll. Including Nick Ferrari's dream cabinet, his Finishing School for Politicians and other visionary ideas that might never change the world, this very funny but, ultimately, very important book is for all of us, from the political grandee all the way down to the 'NEET'. Welcome to the new politics, Nick Ferrari style.
