Jess Phillips: Let’s Be Honest

Event start date Sep
21
2024

MP Jess Phillips takes us on a whistle-stop tour of British politics over the past 14 years, looking at chaos, culture wars and her enduring faith in democracy.

In her new book, Phillips presents a hilarious, often depressing but ultimately uplifting tale of the loss of integrity in British politics.

From culture wars to the Rwanda plan, with a quick mini budget thrown in for good measure, Phillips explores what an obsession with winning elections has cost the country.

But despite the chaos, ultimately, this book is a love letter to democracy and its power to prevail.
