Description
The long-awaited diary from Whitehall's most scandalous MP...
From Brexit to Covid, parties to pig culling, the Conservative government has lurched from crisis to crisis. With a front-row seat on the, erm, backbenches, the Secret Tory MP has picked up on all the petty rivalries, bad decision-making and scandalous affairs that Whitehall has to offer. And he's got no qualms about sharing it. All.
Join the mystery MP as he drunk-texts Liz Truss after a crate of WKD, accompanies Jacob Rees-Mogg (and his kids) to picket a foodbank, takes on the French in the 'Trawler Wars', and euthanises Rishi Sunak's dog - and that's just October.
The Diary of a Secret Tory MP is an outrageous spoof of the classic political journal that pulls back the Lulu Lytle curtains to expose extraordinary goings-on at Westminster across a tumultuous twelve months.

Reviews / Votes
'Even funnier than the actions of the current Cabinet, and that's saying something. A landslide victory for modern satire.' - Caitlin Moran'Scabrous, scurrilous, hilarious and frighteningly plausible . Political satire at its blistering, biting best.' - James O'Brien
'Hysterical, clever and a joy to read. I couldn't stop thinking . . . 'I bet that's true.'' - Chris Packham

Person
Henry Morris convinced the country he was a Tory MP with his Secret Tory Twitter account, delighting users with parodies of Samuel Pepys, Gulliver's Travels and government WhatsApp chats. A personal trainer, Henry spends his spare time dabbling in stand-up, putting on raves, stopping birds of prey from being killed by toffs, running ultra-marathons, and producing open-air Shakespeare.
