Politics by former Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg is a candid account from the top and bottom of British politics that puts the case for reason in the face of extremes.
Nick Clegg was Leader of the Liberal Democrats for eight years from 2007 and Deputy Prime Minister from 2010 to 2015. He has been the Liberal Democrat MP for Sheffield Hallam since 2005, and was previously MEP for the East Midlands. Nick and his wife Miriam were married in her home town in Spain in 2000 and have three young sons - Antonio, Alberto and Miguel. He speaks five languages.
"A compelling account from the inside of the strange, sad death of
liberal Britain. This is a passionate plea for the centre ground,
which has never seemed so remote (or precious) in our current
political dispensation"
*Ian McEwan*
"This engrossing account is written with a warmth and generosity
that can’t have been easy to sustain given the trials and
tribulations he recounts so entertainingly"
*Alan Johnson*
"Essential reading for anyone fearful of the rise of populist
extremism or who thinks coalitions are the future of British
politics"
*Robert Peston*
"This is an important book: a revealing analysis of British
politics today and why it urgently needs reform"
*Shirley Williams*
"People of all political persuasions owe Nick Clegg a debt that I
have no doubt history will acknowledge"
*John Major*
