This is a very powerful audiobook.

Critic Reviews

"There's nobody else at Westminster quite like Jess Phillips. She is fearless and funny, riotous and rebellious, maverick and mischievous." (The Times)

"Jess Phillips is a heroine." (J.K. Rowling)   

interesting, inspiring but a bit short.

There is something very engaging by the unpretentious style and vernacular used by Jess Phillips and there is a passion for fighting injustice that runs through the book. But somehow it lacked a little depth and practical application and I was left wanting more of a positive vision for the future and some direction.....

Great Book written with honesty

A really good listen. by a fantastic honest politician.But a person too,Made me thinks so much .

Inspiring stuff

There’s no one quite like Jess Phillips to make you feel like you can do something good!

The stories she shares of the different people who have stood up for what they believe in are amazing and really illustrate the points she’s making.

Thank you Jess!

a motivating and inspiring call to arms

I didn't know I loved Jess Phillips till I listened to this. She tells the stories and interprets the actions of activists in a way that has me.on the lookout for injustice that I might stand up to it.

A great inspiration

Important issues presented in a both lively nad informative way. A must-read for those of us who want to make a change

If you don’t make your voice heard nothing will happen

This is a short but passionate book written by an MP who stands up for things and explains how you can too. So if the examples of what people have had to stand up for are well know like sexual abuse in Rotherham or the Harvey Weinstein case. You get to understand what the whilst blowers did and how you can too.

powerful

inspiring and narrated beautifully. I very much enjoy this book. I gave it as a gift to my friend who she likes like characters of the book

Inspirational

Jess has taught me that my passion for challenging the status quo where it is in error is not enough. She offers practical advice that turns passion into possibility and makes us realise that whilst speaking truth to power can be exhausting, frustrating and just downright discouraging, there are things we can do to help us keep going and maybe, just maybe, we can make a difference. So don't say there's nothing we can do as individuals, listen to or read this book and realise that there is. Thanks Jess, you're a star.

Just brilliant.

What a wonderful book and a superb insight into how to campaign for change. Absolutely recommend this for anyone with an interest in politics and change.
