Breaking the Code: Westminster Diaries

Gyles Brandreth’s diaries do not offer a formal account of government in the 1990s—far from it. These diaries start in 1990 when Brandreth, after a career in theatre, television, and publishing, decided that he wanted to become a Tory MP. There is an all-star cast, including Princess Diana, Bill Clinton, Joanna Lumley, Jeffrey Archer, and Norman Lamont.
