'Punchy, pithy and short' – Polly Toynbee, Guardian columnist 'In an ideal world every citizen would read this essential book, and think hard' – Professor AC Grayling, academic The broadcaster and journalist Gavin Esler reveals the long-lasting impact of the most momentous change in Britain for decades. In seven succinct chapters, he charts the profound changes brought about by leaving the European Union in key areas of life in the UK: Food and diet Health and the NHS Jobs and industry Education Travel to Europe From the food markets of Kent to NHS operating theatres to the boardrooms of big employers, Brexit is packed with surprises. Brexit Without the Bullshit is not about the Brexit you were expecting: it's about the one we're getting. From the author of How Britain Ends and Britain is Better Than This, this is the ideal accompaniment to books on Brexit such as Fintan O'Toole's Brexit Chronicles and Michel Barner's Secret Brexit Diaries. It uncovers the fundamental changes caused by Brexit – and what they mean for ordinary life. Reviews 'If you want a pithy, sober, clear-headed summary of what Brexit is actually likely to look like, Gavin Esler's new book is spot on. Such a welcome antidote to all the whipped-up sentiment – calm, factual, rigorous.' – Drrachel Clarke, NHS doctor and writer 'Esler provides the evidence of what Brexit has already done to Britain and the harm that it's causing and will cause, in particular to the poorest in our society. A guide for all who want to understand what Brexit really means.' – Jesica Simor, KC 'A brilliant demolition of the lies and liars that created the Brexit mess. Should be required reading at his old stamping ground, the BBC.' – Alastair Campbell, writer and broadcaster About the Author Gavin Esler is a journalist, author and erstwhile presenter of the BBC current affairs show Newsnight. He is the author of seven novels and non-fiction books, including How Britain Ends, Britain is Better Than This, A Scandalous Man, and Lessons From The Top. His key work on Britain's departure from the European Union is Brexit Without the Bullshit. Extract: Why I Wrote This Book – by Gavin Esler In 2016 I did something I had never done before. I voted in the Brexit referendum without knowing what I was voting for or against. No one explained to me – or you – what Brexit would mean for our lives. Whether you voted Leave or Remain, we did not know the facts about Brexit, how it would affect our jobs, food, schools, universities, the NHS, our families, pets, travel arrangements, and even the supposed unity of the United Kingdom. In the years since the Brexit vote, the British government has continued to fail to explain the facts about Brexit, and so I decided to find out for myself. The result is Brexit Without The Bullshit. At first, I thought that if Brexit were stripped of the bullshit — lies and deceit, scare stories and fantasies — there would be nothing left. But the facts about Brexit are so stark, there's plenty to discuss and think about. Gavin Esler Contents Introduction Chapter 1. Brexit & Our Food Chapter 2. Brexit, Our Health & the NHS Chapter 3.
