This book is a collection of humorous stories about the British Tory and the Labour parties. Included are odd and laughable things that happen to the Tories when their pants are down. Each party takes little jabs at the other party. Party members play pranks on each other. They spend most of their time trying to make their rivals appear foolish.PM's and MP's connive to take each other down through ruination. This book covers lying tactics and techniques for looking innocent when guilty. There are hilarious stories about pranks that backfire. MP's trying to get embarrassing photos/videos of the opposition party members which they upload to YouTube from their `other account.' Revenge is also a theme.You'll laugh at dozens of witty little truisms like:"Yes, we are the Government and normal cuts don't really apply to us, but we must make it seem that way."And something the author claims is a truism:"The great thing about being a Conservative is that we're all stupid or corrupt. There's lots of chances for career enhancement, what with all the constant reshuffles when someone forgets they're on camera or is caught out doing something or other."This book is a cleaver sales tool. Each story starts with a featured item in the story that is for sale and a link to amazon where you can purchase the item, maybe the links will save MP's, PM's, and US congressmen some of their valuable time. After reading this book, there is little doubt that their saved time is likely spent on schemes to commit illegal deeds, or on their genitalia.I laughed out loud several times. I laughed uncontrollably at least once or twice.
