Critics Review
It is extraordinary how little proper journalistic scrutiny Farage has received. This book is timely and essential reading from a veteran reporter and troublemaker * Carole Cadwalladr, investigative journalist and co-founder of The Nerve *
An encyclopedic account of Nigel Farage’s singular awfulness. And a forensic analysis of how he hides it from voters * James O’Brien, LBC presenter and author of How They Broke Britain *
Nigel Farage will hate this book almost as much as I liked it * Alastair Campbell, co-host of the The Rest is Politics *
Sharp and fearless. Move over Dennis Waterman and John Thaw. This John is THE Sweeney * Count Binface *
Nigel Farage will hate this book almost as much as I liked it. – Alastair Campbell, co-host of The Rest is Politics
