{"product_id":"9780571404681","title":"Abolish Westminster","description":"\u003cp\u003eGo to any street in Britain and ask people what they think about politics, and most will tell you that it is broken, that they 'don't trust any of them' - our politicians. In other words, they believe our system doesn't work, or that it works only for a chosen few, the elites. A searing work of political analysis, 'Abolish Westminster' makes the case that most people are in fact correct: our politics is broken. Lifting the lid on the British state and society, the book explains why. Examining the lack of accountability faced by our major governmental departments, the pliancy of our cultural institutions and the malleability of national identity, it reveals how power and money are often bent back to the powerful and wealthy - and how, historically, this has almost always been the case, producing disastrous effects. And so, Adam Ramsay points to a radical possibility in an effort to re-establish democracy: breaking up Britain.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adam Ramsay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57525976236410,"sku":"9780571404681","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/files\/9780571404681.jpg?v=1793972665","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.pro\/products\/9780571404681","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
