Media Reviews
If I listened to Nick Cohen I would never win an election. -- Tony Blair A superb journalist... some of the most compelling writing to be published during the age of Blair. - Roy Hattersley, Guardian Sharp and Punchy... A shining example of how to take on the establishment. How New Labour must hate him. - Glasgow Herald Cohen is a spin doctor's nightmare, wittily exposing all that is callous, hypocritical and vapid in the new politics ... [he] is one journalist who will never be bought, although the Conservatives could use his skills. - Financial Times 'To read Cruel Britannia is like swallowing a useful pill to purge optimism ... Cohen is a paid-up dissensus man. - Times Literary Supplement Nick Cohen smell out the cesspits of corruption and injustice with the keenest of noses. He tells it as it is, without fear or favour. He's one of the few independent voices left in an increasingly closed society. - Harold Pinter Cohen is his own man, not always consistent or right or coherent, but unspinnable and unignorable, a Cassandra at the court of a king whose control freakery might yet be his undoing. - Scotland on Sunday
