The referendum on the law-making powers of the National Assembly for Wales is tomorrow. Martin Shipton's clever new title Poor Man's Parliament is OUT now - will you be voting Yes or No?

Poor Man's Parliament explores why the hopes of 1999 too often failed to materialise. What happened to the desire for 'the brightest and best' AMs? Why has the National Assembly yet to capture the nation's imagination? And what happened to the legislative programme?

"Martin writes with authority because he is authority. He is integral to the story of devolution as any of the flawed but well meaning politicians he depicts. That is what gives this book its compelling charm. His writing is spot on in hardback as it is in tabloid form, and his messages are as blunt and persuasive as necessary". Daran Hill waleshome.org
