delivers excellent coverage of contemporary events, with
significant new material covering: the Johnson premiership and the
national challenge of Covid-19, the end of the May premiership and
the implementation of Brexit, the Labour Party's transition from
Corbyn to Starmer, infrastructure and innovation, 'fake news',
populism and nationalism, the UK's place in a post-Brexit world,
climate change, social mobility and elite recruitment, devolution
and regionalism, constitutional strain, the role of political
advisers, abuse and incivility in politics and much more. Other
features of the new edition include: A wide range of illustrative
material, boxes and case studies providing illuminating examples
alongside the analysis. A comprehensive 'who's who' of politics in
the form of Profile boxes featuring key political figures. And
another thing . . . pieces containing short articles on salient and
pressing topics, written by distinguished commentators including
Sir John Curtice, Sir Simon Jenkins, Andrew Rawnsley, Baroness
Julie Smith of Newnham, and Philip Collins. Online interviews on
the book's website see notable figures from British political life

highly respected scholars in the field and contemporary articles on
real-world politics from well-known political commentators, this
textbook is an essential guide for all students of British
politics.
