In recent years, the world of politics has taken a series of disastrous wrong turns. We have witnessed leaders who can't - or shouldn't be allowed to - lead, policies that are either self-serving or don't work, and world views that are corrosive or short term. Alastair Campbell's aim in But What Can I Do? is twofold: to explain why things have gone so wrong, and to show what we can to help put them right. A mix of polemic, analysis and practical advice, this is a political masterclass from a master political commentator and strategist.

L'Europa, la nostra casa comune, risorta dalle ceneri di due Guerre mondiali disastrose, si trova oggi ad affrontare uno dei momenti più cruciali per la sua sopravvivenza. In gioco c'è anche il nostro futuro e che tipo di Unione vogliamo. Siamo veramente destinati a ritornare indietro, agli egoismi nazionali, alle divisioni sociali e alle rivalità politiche?
