What If Reform WinsPeter Chappell

About Peter Chappell
Farage is Britain's new Prime Minister. Nirvana or Nightmare?
A compulsive nonfiction thriller that imagines what might happen if Reform win a majority at the next general election. At 10pm on 28th June 2029, exit polls predict that Nigel Farage will be the 60th Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. This is the story of what could happen next.
What If Reform Wins is a chilling and deeply researched scenario that takes us day-by-day, minute0by-minute through a world in which Reform has the opportunity to put their policies into practice, from deporting 600,000 people to leaving the ECHR, abandoning net zero and ending the BBC's license fee.
How will people fight back against mass deportations and fracking? And will this self-described 'ill-disciplined pirate ship' survive the rigors of government?
