The State of This! A Thicky Thicky Dumb Dumb's Guide to British Politics

"A certified member of the satirical avengers, and a much needed tonic and educator in these mad times." - MUNYA CHAWAWA

In today's climate of highly polarised, culture war-fuelled and personality-driven politics, The State of This! A Thicky Thicky Dumb Dumb's Guide to British Politics is the book we all need to make sense of the seemingly endless bad decision-making by those in power in the UK.

In The State of This!, award-winning comedian, satirist, and political writer Cody Dahler explores the most pertinent political head-scratchers affecting us all: Why are people voting for Reform UK?; why did we Brexit?; what is the House of Lords and is everyone in there an arsehole?; why are our rivers full of shit?; what's to stop us becoming like America?; Why do our PMs change so often; and why do we use a lettuce to measure their success?

Cody's brilliantly witty and fact-filled deep-dives into the history and origins of our current political malaise are as informative as they are fun - and crucially will stop you, the reader, from feeling like a thicky thicky dumb dumb in front of all your mates.

Many of the topics covered in the book come directly from Cody's rapidly growing army of over 2 million followers across all platforms, who look to him to make sense of the state of British politics and help them figure out if we're ever going to find a way out of it.
