THE PARTY IS OVER

THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY

With unparalleled access to people who were in the room, Nadine outlines exactly how we got here, and what really happened, in this astonishing real-life political thriller.

After decades in the hands of malevolent players and two years of disastrous leadership, the Conservative party stands at the edge of the abyss.

From the humiliation of Liz Truss’s 49-day premiership to the shameful, self-serving drift of Rishi Sunak’s time in office, Downfall is the story of a political party on the verge of extinction.

Nadine Dorries draws on interviews – with those in the room – to expose what really went on behind the scenes. From group-sex sessions, organised via WhatsApp, to the King being stood up at the Privy Council, and the reason why Rishi Sunak left the D-Day celebrations early, the accounts are raw, unvarnished and brutal.

Everything is worse than it seems.

The next leader will hold the future of the party in their hands, and, with outside forces resisting change, the challenge will be as enormous as it will be difficult. But the painful truth is that the party deserves to be where it is – and nothing can stay the same.

Most of the predictions have already come true. The establishment hates this book for good reason.

Fascinating. Every Tory voter must read this.

The more i listen, the more i hate Dominic Cummings and the nasty men in suits who really run the country.

A great behind the Tory scenes read

A must read for anyone that thinks they have even a vague interest in British politics. I went in with a sceptical attitude (Dorries has been the subject of so much establishment attack) but this attitude was wholly unmerited. This book is eye opening, shining light on the contemptible people who really lead the Conservative Party from behind the curtain. Please, please, please read this book.

Enthralling and Astonishing

Another great book by Nadine Dorries, her first book was brilliant and so was this one.
