Book description
The Deputy PM, John Prescott, showed signs of strain when a shadowy campaign exposing 'evidence' of controversial property deals began in his home constituency of Hull. Who was out to 'get' him? Who wanted to expose the questionable business deals of his son, Jonathan? The affair was dubbed 'Dustbingate' when the contents of Prescott's bin were stolen in the search for information. Sharp, hilarious and poignant, Dustbingate! is the story of five men taking on the Establishment. Production worker and leader of the pack, Ian Newton, shows how a group of Hull nightshift factory workers caused a political furore beyond their wildest dreams. - Light-hearted account of how ordinary working people (prone to bad language and a liking for alcohol) managed to make a difference. - lifts lid on personal life of a major political figure, very much in the public eye.
