Ruling Britannia - Failure And Future Of British Democracy

Ruling Britannia – The Failure and Future of British Democracy (1996) by Andrew Marr – Penguin Books
From Crappy Old Books – democracy may be broken, and so is the spine on this one.

Long before he became the velvet-voiced fixture of political telly, Andrew Marr delivered this sharp, sobering critique of Britain’s democratic machinery. Ruling Britannia (1996) is part political analysis, part insider exposé, and part anxious love letter to a country struggling with its own creaking institutions. Marr examines everything from Parliament and the press to public apathy and constitutional confusion — all with the breezy urgency of someone who knows exactly how fragile the whole thing really is.

Our copy? A bit dog-eared, slightly foxed, possibly sneered at by a Lib Dem intern in 1997. But the ideas still sting.
