Instant Opinion

Instant Opinion

Instant Opinion is the new political paperback from sjhoward.co.uk. It contains the very best posts from four years of political blogging here on sjhoward.co.uk and on the sites that preceded it. The selection of over 120 posts covers topics from Tony Blair to the G8, and from the European Constitution to Robert Kilroy-Silk’s political ‘career’. There’s even a little bit of new material in there, too.

The Official Blurb

S. J. Howard has been writing political commentary on the internet for the last four years.

Despite having never been involved in politics, and having no political qualifications, his writing has attracted a huge following, won awards, and been featured by major national outlets such as Channel 4 News.

Variously described as ‘refreshing’, ‘articulate’, and ‘hilarious’, S. J. Howard’s writing regularly breathes new life into the world of British politics.

Over 100 of his best pieces are collected together in print for the first time, creating a unique snapshot of four years of political goings-on in the Mother of Parliaments in the 21st Century.
