Through the Looking Glass by Liz Davies
Liz Davies provides an insider's account of the events leading up to the Labour Party's spectacular fall from grace during its term of office under the Blair administration.
In this brilliant and painfully honest account of her journey through the labyrinth of New Labour, Liz Davies leaves us in no doubt that Britain is a single-ideology state with two pro-business factions, distinguished only by their manipulative skillsHowever, her message is not negative; it is inspirational: a call to those who value principle above spin, truth above illusion, to rejoin the great movement, now re-emerging, that will change the world. -- John Pilger
If you have principles in the Labour Party, unless they're those of compromise or abject surrender, you're going to get the big stick from Uncle Tony. Fortunately for Liz Davies, and for us, she's tough enough to take the trouble she creates. -- Mark Thomas
