El gran robo no es nuevo. Lo nuevo es quien lo protegeEl primer libro que investiga a detalle el delito más perseguido de los últimos años después del narcotráfico: el huachicol fiscal. El reconocido periodista Ramon Alberto Garza desmonta la arquitectura de un fraude que sucede a la luz del dia: una red de corrupcion que permite operar a empresas ficticias, evadir impuestos millonarios e involucrar a servidores publicos; asi como un Estado que, lejos de combatir este delito, lo ha tolerado y aprovechado. La investigacion apunta directamente a Morena: funcionarios, operadores del crimen organizado y actores del partido en el poder que han convertido la persecucion selectiva del delito en instrumento politico, mientras el erario se vacia por las mismas manos que prometieron combatir la corrupcion. El gran robo no es nuevo. Lo nuevo es quien lo protege.

Payne.Una lectura imprescindible para cualquiera que este interesado en las multiples formas en que la Internacional Comunista de los años treinta trato de socavar la democracia parlamentaria y llevar la revolucion a España durante la Segunda Republica, Julius Ruiz, autor de La guerra sucia.

In 2019, it looked like the electoral map of Britain had been changed for ever, with once solidly Labour constituencies voting Conservative for the first time. An epochal realignment seemed to be in train that saw the Conservative electoral coalition become much more northern and working class and Labour depending more on middle-class voters in the south. Only a few years later, the realignment lies in ruins.The Red Wall has returned to Labour, and its clear 2019 was a blip. Tories are now jostling amongst themselves to be seen as the heirs to Thatcher. Its almost like the promise of change and levelling up was a fever dream as political parties and voters revert to type.What happened? And what can be done? The Conservatives made a big promise to Red Wall voters in 2019, speaking openly about first-time Conservative voters lending their support and promising that this trust wouldnt be forgotten. They swept the Red Wall with a promise of big economic change.In reality, that was quickly forgotten and the realignment was put in the too-difficult box, in favour of Thatcherite cosplaying that appealed to a tiny core of Tory members but didnt address the real problems the country faced. But the politics behind it cannot be ignored.This book will address what went wrong with the so-called realignment and what needs to be done to revive it.

Britains economy is stuck.In recent years, a succession of economic shocks has led to low growth, stagnant living standards and divided politics. As debt and taxes have risen to record levels, many worry that the UK economy is stuck in a low-growth trap with ruinous implications for future generations.Jeremy Hunt was Chancellor during one of those shocks and successfully navigated the economy out of both inflation and recession.

From Hollywood excess and superyachts to Goldman Sachs boardrooms, and from political upheaval in the Middle East to the corridors of Washington DC, the trail leads to China to unbridled state power that buys influence, subverts governments and makes the truth and people vanish. At its heart is an unspoken China contract: a web of financial and political arrangements that protects those involved, silences scrutiny and extends Beijings reach far beyond Malaysias borders.The China Contract is a real-life thriller and an urgent warning that corruption and state power are insidiously reshaping the global order.

"The key missing piece in the Brexit story."Tim Shipman, The Spectator |"A wonderful read from one of the most quietly influential people in politics in recent decades Highly recommended."Chris Mason, BBCThe 2016 Brexit referendum caused a political earthquake, with aftershocks that are still being felt a decade later. For many, including some who voted to leave, the result came as a surprise. But for one man, it was not. The outcome that stunned so many was something he had been working to achieve for twenty years.You may not have heard of Matthew Elliott, but you should have. He is one of Britains most successful campaigners, a reserved and thoughtful strategist who has single-handedly shaped our political landscape.

Then, five years later, he steered Vote Leave to victory as its chief executive.This extraordinary memoir spans the period from the build-up to Brexit during the 1990s to the present day, providing a fresh perspective on what really went on during the campaign, how the result was won and its bitter aftermath. With his customary candour and wit, Matthew reveals what its like working side-by-side with Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings, their dealings with Nigel Farage and the tricks of the trade that campaigners use to shape the news.Here, ten years on from the EU referendum, is the definitive story of Brexit, as told by the man who had a front-row seat to the most extraordinary political campaign of the modern era.
