In a week in which yet another Tory MP is in the news over sexual assault allegations (that’s four in the past couple of years, by my count), Netflix’s much-hyped political thriller Anatomy of a Scandal debuts. It’s the latest drama to mix the high-stakes environments of law and politics while also throwing in some pretty fundamental questions on consent and class, social and sexual capital. It’s fiction – but you don’t have to look far beyond SW1 for myriad sources of inspiration.
