Sobre IBD

This book records the first 18 months of the Labour government under the leadership of Sir Keir Starmer. So much has been achieved but due to the under-reporting by our media so much has gone un-noticed. Restoring Britain after 14 years of Conservative rule is a long and arduous task but gradually the benefits are being felt. However the misinformation and the incessant criticism from an increasingly hostile press become more sinister as the months go by. The facts, though, are here as it is written in real time and is thoroughly researched.
