Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen des Politikbetriebs. Politiker müssen etwas zu sagen haben, aber Reden ist auch gefährlich. Jeder Satz kann aus dem Zusammenhang gerissen, auf die Goldwaage gelegt und vom politischen Gegner bewusst fehlinterpretiert werden. Nichts ist so einfach wie man es gerne hätte, aber komplizierte Sachverhalte zu erklären ist in Zeiten von kurzen Aufmerksamkeitsspannen eine besondere Herausforderung. Oft müssen Themen wie die Veräußerungserlösgewinnsteuer erst einmal "übersetzt" werden, um auf ihre Relevanz für Bürgerinnen und Bürger hinzuweisen und damit ihr Interesse zu wecken.

The Wild Men tells the story of that first Labour administration – its unexpected birth, fraught existence, and controversial downfall.
