Belaboured. Bats Broken. Britain Shaken.: A Personal Account Of The 2017 General Election

BELABOURED. BATS BROKEN. BRITAIN SHAKEN is an essay about the UK's travails during the General Election of 2017, punctuated as it was by a series of murderous public events. The result was a hung parliament that illustrates the profound uncertainty that Britons feel about their role in the world. It is a personal account of the author's involvement as an infantryman in Norwich South - and it is dedicated to the 'poor, bloody infantry' who do the foot-slogging at election time. More than this it is an account of emotions recollected in tranquillity, the emotion caused by the dismal result of the election and the tranquillity provided by an Italian garden and reflections on the fall of the Roman Empire. The essay is 7,000 words long.
