It delivers excellent coverage of contemporary events including a new chapter on Euro-scepticism and the European referendum, an assessment of the performance of Labour’s leadership, the trials and tribulations of the Liberal Democrats and UKIP, and the evolving devolution debate in Scotland, led by the Scottish Nationalist Party.

  • Britain in context boxes offering contrasting international perspectives on key themes in British politics

    A comprehensive ‘who’s who’ of politics in the form of Profile boxes featuring key political figures

    And another thing . . . pieces containing short articles written by distinguished commentators including Mark Garnett, Sir David Omand, Richard Wilkinson and Sir Simon Jenkins

    An epilogue analyzing the turbulent state of UK politics following the European referendum
