OverviewNew Labour surged to power eleven years ago on the promise to be whiter than white , but their record in office and abuse of trust have proved a bitter disappointment for millions who believed this pledge to clean up politics. Martin Bell, a journalist whose career has been made reporting from the world s unquiet corners, and one-time Independent MP elected on an anti-sleaze platform, asks what went wrong? Wide-ranging and pulling no punches, The Truth That Sticks is a crushing analysis of a decade of deception, dishonesty and abuse of power, delivered with precision and great passion. It is a book that only Martin Bell could have written, and, as Martin's new postscript shows, it s a critique just as relevant now with Gordon Brown in charge.
