The Arab uprisings and the war in Yemen
Huge controversy surrounds Britain's alliances with deeply repressive Gulf monarchies, and the UK's key supporting role in the disastrous Saudi-led intervention in Yemen has lent added urgency to the debate. As these stories continue to make the headlines, this book lifts the lid on the Anglo-Arabian relationship and what's at stake for both sides.
