Synopsis:
Edward Clare, England's Prime Minister has a problem. This once popular political leader has fallen out of public favor for failing to know the price of a liter of milk.
Determined to get back in touch with the common man he sets out to tour Britain, accompanied only by Jack Sprat, the bobby who usually guards Number 10, Downing Street, the official residence of the Prime Minister. And what better disguise than to go in drag?
The odyssey begins in Edward's childhood home city, Edinburgh, and ends in Jack's mother's house in Leicester. It is a journey across social and political barriers that ultimately impacts world affairs as well as their own lives.
Review:
A wickedly entertaining and passionate swipe at New Labour (The Times)
There is a gem on nearly every page. Nothing escapes Townsend's withering pen. Satirical, witty, observant . . . a clever book (Observer)
Poignant, hilarious, heart-rending, devastating (New Statesman)
A delight. Genuinely funny . . . compassion shines through the unashamedly ironic social commentary (Guardian)
