Jess Phillips MP - My Life as an MP: Everything You Really Need to Know About Politics
Straight-talking MP Jess Philips will give the audience at Aye Write a first-hand account of life behind the scenes at Westminster.
About Jess Phillips MP - My Life as an MP: Everything You Really Need to Know About Politics
From agonising decisions on foreign air strikes to making headlines about orgasms, from sitting in on history-making moments at the UN to eating McCain potato smiles at a black-tie banquet in China, the life of a politician is never dull. And it’s also never been more important. But politics is far bigger than Westminster, and in this book Jess Phillips makes the compelling case for why now, more than ever, we all need to be a part of it.
With trademark humour and honesty, Jess Phillips lifts the lid on what a career in politics is really like and why it matters – to all of us. This is the inside story of what’s really going on.
