Or to be fair; apparently a large part of them doesn't want to and thinks this is fine and they are the strongest party in the negotiations. Imperialism! (Said like the Aristocrats)

I've read the book and it's really dumb. The most ridiculous strawman left-wing cause Rowling could come up with is 'the Olympics are a waste of money and will lead to gentrification' The murder victim is a Conservative minister straight out of central casting with big house in Oxfordshire and wife obsessed with horses There's a Lib Dem minister (it's set in 2012) who is basically David Blunkett but female and saintly Surprisingly Joromy Crobyn turns out not to be the villain and has a pretty legitimate grievance but he's also implied to be a sexual predator so yeah, book bad E: there's also a scene where our hero has to race against time to stop Crobyn exposing said Conservative minister's complicity in war crimes in Africa Gato has issued a correction as of 14:32 on Jan 23, 2019 |

Is this why I started hating the Harry Potter books after I turned eleven? Because reading those exerpts her writing feels atrocious. I'm just not sure if it's because I don't like her writing or because I hate her politics.

I'm convinced that her willingness to listen to editors directly correlates against her rise in fame, because the original books were as short as novellas and quite tightly written and they grew ever larger and ever more in need of said editor

In their place, I would have cranked them out as fast as Rowling sent them in too.

It makes a bit more sense in context (Strike is being paid by the minister in question) but otoh Strike (who is portrayed as having an infallible correct moral compass) does not express a single moment of self doubt, only satisfaction at punching a loony leftie, and the whole thing is written like it's Tom Cruise breathlessly racing to defuse a nuclear bomb
