A series of unique 'conversations' with nature with illustrations.

We live in an age of upheaval. The global crisis of Covid-19 has laid bare the deep social and economic inequalities which were the toxic legacy of austerity. These revolutionary times are an opportunity for a radical rethink of Britain as we know it, as the politically impossible suddenly becomes imaginable. And yet, the Left's last attempt to upend the established order and transform millions of lives came to a crashing halt on 12th December 2019, when Jeremy Corbyn led the Labour party to its worst electoral defeat since 1935. In This Land, Owen Jones provides an insider's honest and unflinching appraisal of a movement- how it promised to change everything, why it went so badly wrong, where this failure leaves its values and ideas, and where the Left goes next in the new world we find ourselves in. He takes us on a compelling, page-turning journey through a tumultuous decade in British politics, gaining unprecedented access to key figures across the political spectrum. It is a tale of high hopes and hubris, dysfunction and disillusionment. There is, Jones urges, no future for any progressive project that does not face up to and learn from its errors. We have the opportunity to build a fairer country and a more equal world, but if our time is to come, then we must learn from our past.

The bestselling investigation of the vilification of Britain's working class.

THE PHENOMENAL BESTSELLER 'Fantastic, timely, eye-opening' Armando Iannucci, New Statesman, Books of the Year 'Captures a collective sense of anger and awakening' Matt Haig, Observer, Books of the Year Behind our democracy lurks a powerful but unaccountable network of people who wield massive power and reap huge profits in the process. In exposing this shadowy and complex system that dominates our lives, Owen Jones sets out on a journey into the heart of our Establishment, from the lobbies of Westminster to the newsrooms, boardrooms and trading rooms of Fleet Street and the City. Exposing the revolving doors that link these worlds, and the vested interests that bind them together, Jones shows how, in claiming to work on our behalf, the people at the top are doing precisely the opposite. In fact, they represent the biggest threat to our democracy today - and it is time they were challenged. 'A book of revelations ... The Establishment have stitched it up - stitched you up - and they know it' Danny Dorling, Times Higher Education Supplement 'A dissection of the profoundly and sickeningly corrupt state that is present-day Britain. He is a fine writer, and this is a truly necessary book' Philip Pullman 'Owen Jones is a phenomenon of our times' David Kynaston, The Times Literary Supplement 'You will be enlightened and angry' Irvine Welsh

Exposing the revolving doors that link these worlds, and the vested interests that bind them together, this book shows how, in claiming to work on our behalf, the people at the top are doing precisely the opposite.

In modern Britain, the working class is often viewed with fear and ridicule, exemplified by media portrayals like Little Britain's Vicky Pollard and the demonization of Jade Goody. This demographic is frequently labeled as feckless and criminalized, reduced to the derogatory term "chavs." In a groundbreaking investigation, Owen Jones delves into the transformation of the working class from being seen as the "salt of the earth" to the "scum of the earth." He exposes the ignorance and prejudice behind the chav stereotype, which stems from the media's fixation on a marginalized white underclass. Through his exploration of Westminster and communities from Dagenham to Dewsbury Moor, Jones highlights the escalating poverty and desperation resulting from significant social and industrial changes, compounded by the neglect of policies from Thatcherism and New Labour. He argues that the chav stereotype serves as a convenient excuse for governments to evade genuine engagement with pressing social and economic issues, thereby justifying increasing inequality. Drawing on original research and interviews with media figures, political influencers, and workers, this work critiques the media and political establishment while providing a disturbing portrait of inequality and class hatred in contemporary Britain.
