Description
Book SynopsisAn urgent and necessary polemic on the government’s assault on our fundamental freedoms and the proliferation of Human Rights.
Trade Review'A clear-headed and important contribution to our contemporary predicament from one of the most brilliant young political minds of our time.'
Peter Oborne
'A book that could make Gordon Brown vote Tory.'
Nick Cohen
'A feisty and refreshing attack on human-rights orthodoxy.'
John Gray, The Independent
'Dominic Raab's lament for Britain's lost liberal democracy should reinforce the arguments of those already worried by the state of British human rights; and it should make those who dismiss these concerns think again.'
John Kampfner, The Observer
'As useful a guide as you could want to the consequences of a prolonged absence of proper parliamentary oversight or opposition.'
Dominic Lawson, Sunday Times
'Dominic Raab has been at the middle of the battle to defend our freedoms from these many different threats, and also brings an understanding of the international dimension to the table. He is uniquely placed to analyse the problems and propose thoughtful solutions in this book. His first class forensic analysis is likely to provoke some strong responses, but the cause of freedom is never defended without some discomfort.'
Rt Hon David Davis MP
'An excellent and timely book.'
Henry Porter
'An excellent book.'
Timothy Garton Ash
