Rebellious Britain

Power Cut 2023: A Novel

Beschreibung

Incitement to riot bubbled beneath the surface from 2010 onwards. In 2023 the pot boiled over: Boris, Truss, Brexit, immigration, Rwanda, the homeless and political scandals aplenty pushed the population over the top. Britain had become dysfunctional. How does a population of sleeping tea drinkers react? The itch was unbearable. But then it happened - the app. The solution seemed to emerge from nowhere; backroom boys set up an app which combined modern IT and traditional British values. A group of old boys in the pub were swept along as the people grabbed power from over fifty years of corrupt conniving political parties. What happens when Westminster is suspended and the three hundred parliaments around the country sit? You will be surprised.

Autor

Colin John Walpole was born in 1948 at Greenwich in South East London, he moved to Denmark 1995, where he still lives. His working-class parents survived the war and focussed their lives on raising their four sons who happily played football in the park and war games in the bombed-out houses. A five year apprentice as an auto-electrician earned him a living for twenty or so years until he was recruited into the insurance industry in 1984. Colin and his Danish wife Lisbeth moved with their two young sons to Denmark in 1995. He didn't really miss England but found he couldn't live without his beloved rugby. In 1996 he established a rugby club in the nearby town of Odder; he even pulled on his boots and played when they were short. Colin started writing around 2005 and soon began using this medium to vent his frustration on the way the human race conducted its affairs.
