VOTE
- Protagonist Bev Jones in conflict with a Great Britain run by the trade unions.
- It is an alternate history in the regard that George Orwell was shot during the Spanish Civil War and never came round to write 'Animal Farm' and '1984'.
- Analogue to the notes on Newspeak in Orwell's '1984' this novel has 'A note on Worker's English' at the end.
