Peter Ryan MP has run an authentic, honest, old school campaign to hang on to his Merseyside seat in the face of mounting pressure from the right. He’s been out on the streets. He’s knocked on doors. He’s played by the rules.
He’s lost…
But will Peter let the small matter of a devastating shock defeat at the ballot box keep him from serving his community?
Armed with a fierce sense of right and wrong, a small, dedicated (and slightly confused) staff, and a pistol that’s older than one of Keir Starmer’s dad’s tools—he’s making a stand against the worst excesses of modern politics.
