Philip Gould by D Kavanagh
The death of Philip Gould, former Labour Party Communications Director, in 2011 deprived Britain of one of its most acute and well-respected political minds. In this book his friends and colleagues including David Miliband and Lord Mandelson discuss his life from his early years in the Labour Party to his ultimately doomed fight against cancer.
'He wasn't just my pollster, he was my pathfinder'
- Tony Blair
'Philip was a pathbreaking political strategist as well as a warm, funny, engaging, deeply emotional and loving human being.'
- Ed Miliband
'His last battle was extraordinarily brave; but it was when he opened his arms to death, and looked it in the face, that he shook everyone he knew and a host of friends he never met.'
Andrew Marr
'What motivated him was a genuine, passionate desire to improve his world.'
George Osborne
