How Did Britain Come To This? by Gwyn Bevan
If every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets, what is wrong with the design of the systems that govern Britain? How have they resulted in catastrophic failures of governance? In the book Bevan examines a century of systemic problems with the British state and highlights the urgent need for a new political settlement to fix them.
