Another week, another big fat book of ‘waspish’ political diaries by a figure most people would struggle to put a face to.
A few months ago we had the ‘waspish’ Diary Of An MP’s Wife by Sasha Swire. And a few months before that, we were treated to the ‘waspish’ memoirs of the former Speaker, John Bercow.
All three authors specialise in unsubtle abuse of bigger fish. Thus Bercow calls Theresa May ‘dull as ditchwater’ and David Cameron ‘deeply snobbish’, and Sasha Swire calls May ‘humourless’ and Bercow ‘revolting’, while Alan Duncan declares that May has had a ‘charisma bypass’ and that Bercow is ‘an angst-ridden oddball’.
