About this listen

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.

Critic reviews

‘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

This is one of the funniest books I’ve ever read or in this case listened to. In a way, it’s like the political Secret Diary of Adrian Mole. Regardless of your political persuasions, I promise you will laugh out loud.This is a work of utter genius. The narration is outstanding, Genius! Hilarious! Classic!

Potatoes are cheaper than chips! The funniest book I can remember.

Like all good satire, it's close enough to the truth to be funny, but imaginative enough to keep off the libel lawyers.

Satire at its best - and brilliantly read

Too realistic and painfully funny, I am sure the powers that be woollike to know who the secret Tory actual is.

Continuously laugh-out loud account of the life of a Tory that is so believable that it's tempting to try and work out who it is in real life.
