I bought this thinking it was a fairly recent book, but actually it's from the early 90s, so I've probably read it before! It certainly went over familiar ground in Hennessy's avuncular style, and it was based on his R4 series rom the time. I was a little disappointed with the discussions between those giants Enoch Powell and Tony Benn when they were discussing parliamentary procedure, as both of them did indeed appear to be muddling through and neither had any clear idea how things did or should work. If they don't know, who does?
