Summary

There are plenty of good books on how to write and how to deliver a speech, but none at all on how to write a speech for an MP to deliver in parliament. Until now. The quality of our Parliamentary speeches should reflect the quality of our politics. Better politics mean better speeches, and conversely better speeches mean better politics. A parliamentary speech which is artfully-crafted, rigorously thought-through, robustly-constructed, intelligently-argued, and delivered with style, wit, and technical skill is a sign that all is not lost in our struggling political system. In this lofty spirit, 'How to Write a Parliamentary Speech' aims to lift the quality of speeches, and in doing so, elevate our politics.
