Book Review: "Agent Running in the Field" By John Le Carre

Bring in a spy with a dead end job-a rough and bumpy surrounding in the age of Brexit and Trump- and plenty of non stop action and you have Agent Running in the Field.

“He’s Putin’s shithouse cleaner. He does everything for little Vladi that little Vladi can’t do for himself: pisses on European unity, pisses on human rights, pisses on NATO…”


It's a reality check for the die hards who follow blindly off the cliff as their savior and God and it's a call for unity among those who see through the smoke and fog.


For the rest of the allies -we are sorry - as he may have garnished the votes but not those that count.


It's a mockery and insult to our allies and a danger to our own country as we try to save our Constitution and our Democracy.


“It is my considered opinion, that for Britain and Europe, and for liberal democracy across the entire world as a whole, Britain’s departure from the European Union in the time of Donald Trump, and Britain’s consequent unqualified dependence on the United States in an era when the US is heading straight down the road to institutional racism and neo-fascism, is an unmitigated clusterfuck bar none.”


It's a world in which what is facts is misconstrued as fake news and what's gaslighting is seen as the norm “If a traitor doesn’t surprise the shit out of us, he’s no bloody good at his job.”
