HOW TO RUN BRITAIN is a plea from Robert Peston and Kishan Koria to own what's gone wrong and then make courageous reforms to everything, from the way we manage the economy to how we vote. We all know that, over the past fifteen years, British living standards have stagnated, inequality between - and within - communities is rampant, politicians have lost credibility and the trust of the nation. Millions feel disconnected, disenfranchised and, frankly, disgruntled.

But what do those problems really mean - and how do we fix them? How can we win the trust back from voters, from teachers, doctors, students, pensioners - all those who feel left behind by those who purport to act in their best interest?Peston and Koria's argument is simple: first, we must interrogate everything that has gone wrong, and build solutions from there. This is not the time to shy away from the recent past, nor should we indulge in it. Instead, we should take the lessons learned over the past fifteen years and build a future-focused, strategic plan for restoring economic, political and social security to the country we know and love.

How To Run Britain is a manifesto for change in its simplest, clearest form, from the minds of two people who have seen it all.

This is an updated, retitled edition of Bust? by Robert Peston and Kishan Koria published in 2023

Industry Reviews

Asks all the right questions with the urgency of our times and trials. Most importantly, it answers (most of them) with strategies to transform penury to prosperity. - Mark Carney

Robert Peston and Kishan Koria pull no punches on the economic and social challenges arising from the UK's weak productivity performance. But they find cause for optimism, not least from the fact that AI could be a force for good. - Sharon White

The economy is stalled, our social fabric frayed, our politics splintered . . . a brilliantly candid, timely and perceptive account of these fractures with bold suggestions on how they can be mended. - Andy Haldane
