      The book presents a critical examination of the political decisions leading to the global financial crisis, focusing on the period since 1919. It argues that politicians have consistently prioritized self-interest over the public good, resulting in long-term economic mismanagement. Using Britain as a case study, the author combines historical narrative with conceptual analysis to illustrate how decades of neglect and betrayal by leaders have culminated in the current financial chaos. The call for accountability emphasizes the need for a shift in political responsibility.
