Abstract

"How Labour Governments Fall: From Ramsay MacDonald to Gordon Brown." Timothy Heppell and Kevin Theakston. Palgrave Macmillan. August 2013. --- The previous Labour Government lost office after the party’s longest stint in Government, eventually losing power under Gordon Brown against a backdrop of intellectual fatigue and economic crisis. Eunice Goes reviews Timothy Heppell and Kevin Theakston’s impressive new book on the fall of Labour Governments, and finds recurring themes echoing down the generations.
