| Abstract: | The Labour Party is led by an elderly, principled left-winger who is deeply loved by the rank and file, although he has no serious chance of winning a general election. Behind the scenes, far-left operators are infiltrating and taking control of the party machinery, making that chance even smaller .... This is the Labour Party of the early Eighties, when Golding, an MP of the centre-right, helped to take on and defeat Militant Tendency, paving the way to Labour becoming electable again. Golding evokes the atmosphere of intolerance and intimidation well. It's not very stylishly written, but it's clear, plain, reportage. Does it have lessons for Labour today? Well, er, it might do. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
