About this listen

 The 'Good Chaps' theory holds that those who rise to power in the UK can be trusted to follow the rules and do the right thing. They're good chaps, after all. Yet Britain appears to have been taken over by bad chaps, and politics is awash with financial scandals, donors who have practically bought shares in political parties, and a shameless contempt for the rules.

Simon Kuper, author of the Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller Chums, exposes how corruption took control of public life, and asks: how can we get politicians to behave like good chaps again?©2024 Simon Kuper (P)2024 Profile Books Ltd Europe Great Britain Politics & Government

I previously read Simon Kupers book Chums, and really liked it. Good chaps follows the same model, but covers outright corruption instead. It shows very well the corruption of the UK political system, and how attempts to rein it in have failed. I highly recommend the book. Wish it was longer and provided more details to build its case.
