Why Is This Lying Bastard Lying to Me? – a question famously
asked by master TV inquisitor Jeremy Paxman – is a history of
thirty years in British politics viewed through the prism of
political television, from Thatcher’s fall to the crash and burn
of Liz Truss, via the Iraq War, austerity, Brexit and Partygate.
Rob Burley’s deliciously irreverent insider’s account of a
career spent trying to get straight answers from politicians offers

complicated relationship with the truth. Rob Burley has prepared,
practised and helped prosecute political interviews with eight
prime ministers over more than twenty-five years, working alongside

the political interview and, with the help of exclusive
conversations with TV giants from Jeremy Paxman and Andrew Neil to
Andrew Marr and Emily Maitlis, will take you inside the process
like never before.
