'It is said that failed politicians make the best diarists. In which case I am in with a chance.' Chris MullinChris Mullin has been a Labour MP for twenty years, and despite his refusal to toe the party line - on issues like 90 days detention, for example - he has held several prominent posts. To the apoplexy of the whips, he was for a time the only person appointed to government who voted against the Iraq War. He also chaired the Home Affairs Select Committee and was a member of the Parliamentary Committee, giving him direct access to the court of Tony Blair.Irreverent, wry and candid, Mullin's keen sense of the ridiculous allows him to give a far clearer insight into the workings of Government than other, more overtly successful politicians. He offers humorous and incisive takes on all aspects of political life: from the build-up to Iraq, to the scandalous sums of tax-payers' money spent on ministerial cars he didn't want to use. His critically acclaimed diary will entertain and amuse far beyond the political classes.

Includes Two Never-Before-Published Short Stories 'Harry Perkins was buried on the day that America declared war on China.' The definitive post-Brexit thriller and long-awaited sequel to the bestselling A Very British Coup.

Featuring a blend of wit and sophistication, this diary captures the lives of notable figures in an engaging manner. The author is poised to join the ranks of celebrated diarists like Chips Channon and Alan Clark, offering readers a glimpse into the world of high society and political intrigue. The writing is marked by sharp observations and a keen sense of humor, making it a compelling read for those interested in the intricacies of personal and public life.

Picking up where he left off in 2010's Decline and Fall, celebrated diarist Chris Mullin returns with his trademark irreverence and keen eye for the absurd to chronicle the turbulent last decade of the second Elizabethan era. Wise, witty and deeply perceptive, Mullin paints a vivid portrait of our recent political history.
