Beschreibung

When Michael Heseltine wrote his acclaimed autobiography, Life in the Jungle, he assumed his political career was over. He returned to Haymarket, his publishing business, and intended to explore more of the world and pursue his passions outside politics.
His assumption was wrong. David Cameron called him, tentatively at first but gradually with increased responsibility, back to the corridors of power.
This second memoir is a potpourri of reminiscences about Heseltine's life and previously unexplored aspects of his stellar political career. But the main reason for Heseltine taking up his pen again has been to look back on the fundamental changes he was able to mastermind while in government and to set out the policies that are urgently needed to unite the country by driving growth, increasing prosperity and restoring hope. He combines this with new revelations about the seismic Westland scandal, the establishment cover-up that caused him to resign from Margaret Thatcher's Cabinet, and a damning assessment of what he considers the grievous act of self-harm inflicted on Britain by Brexit.
This extraordinary new memoir offers an urgent agenda to rebuild Britain from one of our last great statesmen, who has been at the forefront of business and politics for the past sixty years.

    Adoption is a profound and life-altering experience, one that reshapes the lives of both children and parents. It is a journey that begins with the desire to provide a child with the safety, love, and support they need to grow, while also offering parents the opportunity to nurture and build a family. Adoption is unique because it is not just a legal process, but an emotional and relational journey that involves new beginnings, hopes, and dreams for the future. 
    For adoptive parents, the decision to adopt can be filled with excitement, but also with uncertainty and challenges. The process itself can be complex, involving a range of legal, emotional, and logistical steps. It requires careful preparation, openness to learning, and a deep understanding of the child’s needs, which may include navigating loss, identity, and the need for belonging. Adoptive parents often face questions about how to best bond with their child, how to create a secure and nurturing environment, and how to build a lasting and trusting relationship. 
    For the child, adoption is a journey of its own. It involves the experience of joining a new family, which may include adjustments to a new home, new caregivers, and, in some cases, a new culture or environment. Children may struggle with feelings of loss or confusion, and the process of building trust and attachment can take time. However, with the right guidance, care, and patience, adoption can also provide children with a fresh start—an opportunity to experience love, stability, and the sense of belonging that every child deserves.

    Before the Korean War and the subsequent famine that gripped the Korean Peninsula from 1950 to 1953, Korea was a land marked by centuries of history, cultural development, and foreign influence. In the early 20th century, the Korean people were under the harsh rule of Japanese colonialism, which lasted from 1910 to 1945. During this period, the Japanese occupation had devastating effects on the Korean economy, agriculture, and society. The Japanese implemented policies that restructured the land distribution system, forced farmers to increase rice production for export, and destroyed much of the local economy in the process. This left the Korean Peninsula struggling with a weakened agricultural system and an economy dependent on Japan. 
    After Japan’s defeat in World War II, Korea was liberated in 1945. However, this newfound freedom came with its own set of challenges. The peninsula was divided along the 38th parallel into two zones of occupation, with the Soviet Union controlling the north and the United States occupying the south. This division set the stage for the creation of two separate Korean states: the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) in the north, and the Republic of Korea (South Korea) in the south. Both nations had vastly different political systems, economies, and ideologies, leading to a growing tension between the two that would ultimately culminate in the outbreak of the Korean War in 1950. 
    In the years leading up to the war, both North and South Korea were in a fragile state. The land was still reeling from the effects of the Japanese occupation, and the infrastructure was damaged and underdeveloped. The North, under the leadership of Kim Il-sung, began implementing communist policies and land reforms that were intended to restructure the economy. Meanwhile, the South, under the leadership of Syngman Rhee, leaned toward a more capitalist and democratic system.
