Julian Dutton - My Town, My Rules: The Diaries Of Britain's Greatest Councillor
In 2019 the remarkable yet curious figure of Rowan Copernicus Battley - officially Britain's Widest Councillor (Guinness Book of Records 2024) - burst upon Twitter in all his municipal glory. Since then he has entertained many thousands of followers with his observations of life & leadership in the bizarre small town of Chadwell in South Northamptonshire.
Here for the first time Battley's glorious daily pronouncements are gathered in a book, guaranteed to tickle the most obdurate of ribs as he lifts the lid off the world of local governance.
The creation of comedy writer & performer Julian Dutton (The Big Impression, Pompidou, Scoop, ChuckleVision, Truly Madly Bletchley, The Harpoon), these uproarious diaries assure Councillor Battley's place among the ranks of the pompous and deluded everywhere, alongside Charles Pooter, Captain Mainwaring and Mr. Pickwick. Relive the last few years but with a smile on your face in the company of Battley, his beloved wife Lola, his children Sally and Pericles, and the entire council staff and merry citizens of Chadwell-on-the-Chad.
