Armed with a fairly flimsy disguise and some worryingly poor accents, Mark Thomas sets off on a
journey of discovery in the company of arms dealers, torture victims, politicians, cops, crusties and geeks. The result is both deeply funny and deeply disturbing. Sharp and entertaining, Thomas reveals the truth of an industry fraught with loopholes, complacency and greed; that allows corrupt regimes to kill, maim and displace, but whose deals are often subsidised by the British taxpayer.
