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

British politics, explained with satire for anyone who has nodded along to the news without quite knowing what is going on.
Reading guide
This is a standalone book with no sequel or companion volumes, so it can be picked up and read on its own without any reading order to follow.
Rather than following a story, the book takes readers through the workings of British politics with a satirical eye, aiming to make a confusing system easier to follow and more entertaining to think about.

Description

The State of This! is pitched squarely at the self-confessed thicky thicky dumb dumb, the reader who has followed the headlines while privately wondering how the system actually works. As the subtitle admits cheerfully, it sets out to make sense of British politics using satire, on the view that a system which often seems to make no sense can be easier to understand when it is laughed at.

Comedian Munya Chawawa describes the book as "a certified member of the satirical avengers" and "a much needed tonic and educator in these mad times". It suits the curious and the baffled who would rather laugh than be lectured.
