The Secret Life of Leinster House

If you've ever wanted to know what is it like to run for election: the the almost constant abuse, the cut-throat competition from their rivals – and their own running mates, the demaning hours and the public scrutiny, then this is the book for you.

Written by Gavan Reilly, Virgin Media’s Political Correspondent, who has seen it all from a ringside seat at the Cabinet table. He explains how our electoral and governing system works in a really digestable way, He introduces us to the whips, lobbyists and special advisers pulling the strings and explains exactly how leaked minutes from parliamentary party meetings end up on the Six One News. He even answers the burning question of what the Dáil bar really like?
