Len McCluskey, the prominent trade unionist of his time, has written a captivating autobiography that unveils his life at the helm of the influential Unite union for over a decade. With his unique and influential presence on the political scene, McCluskey's autobiography offers a revealing glimpse into his interactions with Keir Starmer, the behind-the-scenes battles during the Corbyn era, his secret Brexit negotiations with the Theresa May government, the dramatic fallout with his former friend Tom Watson, and his complex relationship with Ed Miliband.

McCluskey, a fierce political figure with a strong left-wing ideology, emerges as a true workers leader. His political roots are deeply intertwined with Liverpool's history, encompassing dock strikes, the Beatles, and the 1968 Paris revolution. He vividly recounts his experiences as an eyewitness to the Hillsborough tragedy, including the harrowing search for his son. Witty and astute, McCluskey delivers a powerful intervention, advocating for the future of trade unionism and urging the left to remain focused on class politics.

As a central figure in a turbulent period of British political history, McCluskey's account provides an indispensable and entertaining record of our times. His forthright, confident, and witty storytelling style makes for an engaging and insightful read, offering a unique perspective on the events and personalities that have shaped contemporary politics.
