Rob Burley was long one of the most powerful men in broadcasting, charged with running the live political shows which grill our frontline politicians. In his new book - Why Is This Bastard Lying To Me - he details everything from the art of the political interview, to revelations about the BBC's relationship with government. Fascinating stuff, I thought, which helps us understand how power works in modern Britain.
