The Times reporter Peter Chappell creates a chilling scenario of what a Reform government might mean in practice. A non-fiction, political thriller, Chappell’s book draws on in-depth research and extensive interviews with civil servants and political insiders to understand what could happen with Nigel Farrage in power. The Reform Party has many plans but Chappell focuses three issues – immigration, scrapping net-zero and cutting taxes. There is a warning; the British political system places significant power in the hands of a prime minister with a majority, and it relies on good politicians voluntarily being good. Whatever our individual reactions, Chappell asks do you or don’t you want to risk putting this man in Downing Street?
