‘A magnificent tome, full of acerbic wit and groaning with disaster. This book is the only Brexit benefit I can think of. Send it to anyone thinking of voting Tory’ Jemma Forte, broadcaster and writer ‘With scathing wit and insight, Russell Jones delivers the hilarious and terrifying no-holds-barred roast we’ve all been waiting for’ Peter Stefanovic, journalist and broadcaster ‘As ever, Russell’s writing is just the job if you’re in need of a laugh AND your blood pressure is dangerously low . . .’ Mitch Benn, comedian and writer ‘A merry romp through a deeply unmerry time! Made me laugh, made me weep, made me wonder if it was too late to burn my TV and pretend none of it had happened’ Otto English, writer and journalist ‘I do not know how Russell Jones creates his magnificently witty, acerbic almanacs of Tory idiocy without being driven round the bend by what he is summarising . . . What a dazzling keeper-of-record Jones is. Honestly, further praise is superfluous’ Howard Goodall, composer and broadcaster ‘Russ ties the many misadventures of Tory rule in a brilliantly neat bow. A first-class thesis on why there ought to be a better way of doing things’ Tom Gray, founding member of Gomez
