Politics UK

Available for over a year

Britain has a new Prime Minister - and a new kind of politics. How will the country's first coalition for seventy years work in practice? Can it last? What now for the defeated Labour Party? Are there lessons to be learnt from the German experience? And how did British politicians in the dim and distant past cope when there was an indecisive election result? All that in Politics UK.
