About this deal

When Boris Johnson came to power in 2019, he did so with the largest Conservative majority since Margaret Thatcher. In each chapter, Dorries meets a new source, generally anonymous, who explains the theory again, at great length. This book is so shocking it depressed me in the end due to the total corruption of our democracy and I think that urgent investigations by police, Parliament and the Conservative party should start immediately, in fact I am shocked that this proposal hasn't already been started. You guys, you think it’s fucking acceptable, that your little world is more important than any world anyone else works in, and you wonder why the public hate MPs,” says one source, ranting bitterly against the dark arts, and you think; that’s it, that’s the story.Here are five of the most eye-catching claims made by the former culture secretary in her "tell-all" memoir. Trying to explain the bits of the historical record that cannot be denied, Dorries portrays her hero as a weak fool. I can't say I enjoyed reading this book because the democracy that I thought I lived in, no longer exists.

With unprecedented access to behind-the-scenes Westminster material, the former Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport delivers an impassioned reconstruction of the downfall of Boris Johnson.

There is no truth in the sex dossier that circulated about Liz Truss before her election – “just ridiculous”. With no hint of objectivity, this title takes its readers for fools to the extent it becomes fiction. Reasons that this is terrible include: (1) it's highly repetitive; (2) it's sometimes really dull and tedious; (3) Dorries makes no effort to draw conclusions or make connections. But the uncomfortable truth is, that the greater part of The Plot consists of verbatim interviews with those who were present, or in a position to observe closely.This isn't so much a novel as a collection of interviews, which shed light on the cancer at the heart of the Conservative party.

But by June, she had decided to bring forward her exit, quitting Parliament just hours after telling TalkTV she would not consider doing so because “the last thing I would want to do would be to cause a by-election”. Throughout the book, former colleagues of Dorries emerge in a less than flattering light, said The Independent. I picked up this book in the admittedly naive hope that the title might imply the existence of at least one of these two kinds of plots. Connoisseurs of the adversaries of James Bond, to whom Boris Johnson does indeed bear a striking resemblance, will know Bambi and Thumper as henchpersons of Spectre, an organisation that Ernst Stavro Blofeld made almost as scary as The Movement.In it, she claims there was a plot orchestrated by a secret cabal of back room advisors, politicians and individuals in the media to overthrow Boris Johnson.
