THE MUST-READ BOOK FROM ITV''S ROBERT PESTON AND KISHAN KORIA, REVISED AND UPDATED FOLLOWING THE GENERAL ELECTION *Previously published as Bust?*---------Britain is facing uncertainty, threats and risk: new Prime Minister, new government, new political landscape, at home and abroad. But how much should change? And how much will change? How To Run Britain is a plea from Robert Peston and Kishan Koria to own what''s gone wrong and make courageous reforms to everything, from the way we manage the economy to how we vote. We all know that, over the past fifteen years, British living standards have stagnated, inequality between - and within - communities has grown rampant, politicians have lost credibility and the trust of the nation. Millions say they are unheard and disenfranchised, victimised even. A far-right racist minority feels entitled to riot. But what do those problems really mean - and how do we fix them? How can politicians win the trust back from voters, from teachers, doctors, students, pensioners - all those who feel left behind by those who purport to act in their best interest?Peston and Koria''s argument is simple: first, we must interrogate everything that has gone wrong, and build solutions from there. This is not the time to shy away from the recent past, nor should we indulge in it. Instead, we should take the lessons learned over the past fifteen years and build a future-focused, strategic plan for restoring economic, political and social security to the country we know and love.How To Run Britain is a manifesto for change in its simplest, clearest form, from the minds of two people who have seen it all.This is an updated, retitled edition of Bust? by Robert Peston and Kishan Koria, published in 2023.

A no-holds-barred rampage through gigs, clubs, boardrooms, drugs and booze, mad scenes, brilliant signings, machine gun quotes and a resilient wild spirit.''A true believer in the power of music and more importantly a believer in the people that make music'' Noel Gallagher''McGee was our Malcolm McLaren and Tony Wilson. An instigator and motivator, a born upsetter. I''ve never met anyone like him'' Bobby GillespieMusic is like no other business. It''s about being at the right place at the right time, following your nose and diving in feet first. It''s about being plugged into the mystical electricity and about surfing on the wild energy. It''s about how to fuck up and how to survive and be sustained by the holy grail of the high decibel.No-one captures this wild feral spirit better than Alan McGee whose helter-skelter career through music has made him a major force. Wilder than his bands, more out of control than his most lunatic singer, more driven than his contemporaries and closer in spirit to the rock''n''roll star he could never be himself, McGee was always in a rush. Creation would sign people and not just the music. McGee understood that running an indie label is mainly about the charisma, the game changers, the iconography and the story. It''s about never being boring.His ability to start a raw power ruckus brought the visceral danger back to a moribund mid-eighties music scene. His nose for danger and his ear for classic guitar rock''n''roll brought us The Jesus and Mary Chain, Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine, Teenage Fanclub and Ride before topping out in the nineties with the biggest band in the world, Oasis.By no means a conventional instruction manual or business book, How To Run an Indie Label tells you everything you need to know about how to be a creative force.

One of the world's most celebrated historians and journalists uncovers the networks trying to destroy the democratic worldAll of us have in our minds a cartoon image of what an autocratic state looks like, with a bad man at the top. But in the 21st century, that cartoon bears little resemblance to reality. Nowadays, autocracies are run not by one bad guy, but by sophisticated networks composed of kleptocratic financial structures, security services and professional propagandists.The members of these networks are connected not only within a given country, but among many countries. The corrupt, state-controlled companies in one dictatorship do business with corrupt, state-controlled companies in another. The police in one country can arm, equip, and train the police in another.The propagandists share resources—the troll farms that promote one dictator’s propaganda can also be used to promote the propaganda of another—and themes, pounding home the same messages about the weakness of democracy and the evil of America. Unlike military or political alliances from other times and places, this group doesn’t operate like a bloc, but rather like an agglomeration of companies: Autocracy, Inc. Their relations are not based on values, but are rather transactional, which is why they operate so easily across ideological, geographical, and cultural lines.In truth, they are in full agreement about only one thing: Their dislike of us, the inhabitants of the democratic world, and their desire to see both our political systems and our values undermine. That shared understanding of the world—where it comes from, why it lasts, how it works, how the democratic world has unwittingly helped to consolidate it, and how we can help bring it down—is the subject of this book.
