PRIME MINISTER
A Political Novel
Prime Minister

The country is in crisis. Unrest and inner city tensions feed on unemployment. And as the Government struggles to contain the soaring debt, no one listens. Most are tired of ‘PR-savvy’ words, tired of the ‘blame-game’ that poses as debate.

THE PEOPLE’S BUDGET
THE SECRET LIFE OF REAL ESTATE

Although the Edwardian period may in retrospect appear to have been a golden age, it was in reality a time of much turbulence in the political and social fields. There were long and often violent strikes in the docks and coalmines as well as in other less vital industries. Poverty was endemic, and it was the fear of the creation of a semi-criminal underclass as much as feelings of benevolence that led during this period to the beginnings of the welfare state.

 'Chosen by THE PEOPLE’S BOOK PRIZE:   July 2009 Collection'
'As featured in THE PEOPLE’S BOOK PRIZE:  August 2009 Collection'

Real estate is sold as a much safer investment than the constantly fluctuating stock market. Share price volatility is compared unfavourably with the steadier and impressive gains made from real estate which is, we are told, ‘as safe as houses’.

LOCATION MATTERS
Recycling Britain’s wealth
LOCATION MATTERS

Land rights confer wealth, but not uniformly. Location matters - building Canary Wharf in a desert without the associated infrastructure would not have made anyone richer.

RICARDO’S LAW
House Prices and the Great Tax Clawback Scam

Ricardo’s Law judges Tony Blair’s decade in power. The author marshals the evidence to address four indictments of how the modern state operates, and how New Labour failed to advance its agenda. Blair was given a mandate to modernise Britain’s institutions and include everyone in the prosperity of the nation. Fred Harrison explains why this prospectus could not be realised, because tax policies continue to favour the rich and penalise the poor.

THE CORRUPTION OF ECONOMICS

The mystery of persistent economic failure is explained. The authors accuse the founders of neo-classical economics - the paradigm taught in schools and universities - of distorting the science to protect vested interests and to prevent governments from adopting policies that would permit sustainable growth and an equitable distribution of wealth.

PROGRESS AND POVERTY
Edited and Abridged for Modern Readers

Today we live in a world that is divided. A world in which we have made great progress and advances in science and technology. But it is also a world where millions of children die because they have no access to medicines. We live in a world where knowledge and information have made enormous strides, yet millions of children are not in school…It is a world of great promise and hope. It is also a world of despair, disease and hunger … Nelson Mandela, 2005

THE POSSIBILITY OF PROGRESS


Prices of over £5m for some freehold houses in central London in early 2007, indicates one truth from this book: wealth increasingly shifts to all land owners as a society develops, despite agriculture taking a lesser part in the overall economy. Braund takes a secular approach to ethics but arrives at values that religious people would also concur with. The book contains a mine of useful historical information.
Charles Bazlinton, author of 'A Free Lunch'

'This is an impressive, important and readable book' James Robertson,
NEW ECONOMICS FOUNDATION

'...he is to be congratulated for opening up a debate based on the notion that we must radically rethink our economic system for it to be fair and sustainable' John West,
TRIBUNE

...promises to transform the way we think about politics, economics and the value of human life ... will interest people at all points of the political spectrum, engaging liberals ands conservatives alike
