Recent votes in the House of Commons on British military
intervention have put foreign policy at the heart of public
consciousness. This book examines fifty years and nine premierships
- from Harold Wilson to David Cameron - to offer a unique account
of the growing role of the prime minister in foreign policy making.
The prime minister now spends more time on foreign policy than at
any previous period outside war, but excepting crises the public
and MPs themselves remain relatively ill-informed on the subject.
Written by a senior parliamentary researcher and based on
first-hand interviews with former foreign secretaries, Cabinet
ministers, senior civil servants, party officials, military chiefs
and diplomats, this book provides an insider account of votes on
military intervention in Syria, and raises questions around the
vetting of those who seek the office of prime minister and the
educating of the electorate. -- .
