Ex-Prime minister Boris Johnson’s former aide Cleo Watson is planning a second novel about political life, we hear.
Watson, right, was a key Downing Street adviser, working with Dominic Cummings during the pandemic. Her first novel, Whips!, is set during a Tory leadership search, and comes out in May. It has been billed as a “bonkbuster”, with characters based on real political figures. The second book will cover a general election, and publishers are said to be scratching their heads to find a similarly racy title.
