Cover von Andrew Holmes: The Painspotter's Guide to Broken Britain (ePUB)
Welcome to Broken Britain!

MPs are blaming ‚The System‘ for their thieving behaviour.
Bankers have burnt through more cash than President Mugabe and
still been bailed out. Britain is Broke. Only one thing’s
going to sort this mess out – some good old-fashioned finger
pointing. It’s time to take revenge… Painspotting style.

Let the Painspotting commence!

This book is more effective than Prozac and cheaper than therapy.
You may be angry, you may be mad, you may even be
institutionalised, but put the baseball bat away, hang up your
lynching rope, and let the Painspotting commence!

50 of the best

Love them, hate them, blame them, rate them: The Painspotter’s
Guide to Broken Britain introduces the 50 most frightful
characters you’ll meet in a financial crisis, so prepare to laugh
out loud at the Frightened Fat Cat, the Miserable Middle
Class, the Self-help Saddo and many more.

Über den Autor

ANDREW HOLMES is someone who is deeply affected by everyone
around him – mainly negatively, you understand. This is a man
who deliberately fills up his glass so that it’s always
half-empty, as it gives him something to complain about. When he is
not scowling at people in the street, you will find him living in a
bivouac in an ancient Hampshire forest, well away from the credit
crunch.

DAN WILSON is trained as a transforming robot Jedi ninja
and regularly scribbles over boundaries betwixt low and high brow
art. A fan of decreating remolicious words, he has won innumerable
awards for nothing special and hopes to achieve inter-spatial
awareness sometime soon. Dan lives with his family in a
post-postmodern treehouse, and plans on retiring to the Sea of
Tranquility in the 25th Century.
