None of the Above Summary

None of the Above by Rick Edwards

Are all the parties the same?

Will my vote really make any difference?

Why is politics so hard to understand?

If you've ever thought any of these things, you're not alone. What with broken promises, complicated jargon and a lack of simple and clear information, is it any wonder that voter turnout is plummeting? It's not that you don't care about the way the country is run - it's that you don't think you can change it. Well, you can. And this book aims to show you how, by setting out basic politics and answering questions we've all asked, like: Why do politicians lie? What do UKIP stand for? And what's going to happen to the NHS?

You have a decision to make in the countdown to the May 2015 General Election. You have something politicians want.

Your vote.

An ambassador for #SwingtheVote and the presenter of Free Speech, Rick Edwards has written a pithy and succinct book explaining the power of your vote. A refreshing counterpoint to Russell Brand's sentiments on voting in his latest book, Revolution,it will make you think about politics in a completely new way.
