History resting on a hair's breadth … a man dies rather than lives, an election is lost rather than won, one minister is appointed, another dismissed, a coalition is joined, or not. Enter a world of political counterfactuals, twenty-two examinations of things that never happened - but could have. In this book a collection of distinguished commentators, including journalists, academics, former MPs and special advisers, consider how things might have turned out differently throughout a century of political history - from Lloyd George and Keynes drowning at sea in 1916 right through to Boris Johnson becoming Prime Minister in 2016. Scholarly analyses of possibilities and causalities take their place beside fictional accounts of alternate political histories - and all are guaranteed to entertain and make you think.

Book
NOTE: Prime Minister boris johnson - the anticipation of Boris becoming PM is too much for Iain Dale to talk about without whining and moaning. Written ten years before Johnson actually became PM, it paints an optimistic and somewhat sycophantic portrait of Johnson, as opposed to the reality of the freeloading, addled mess he actually was.
