In Chums, Simon Kuper told the story of the university clique-turned-Commons majority which runs this country. Now, with a general election looming and a second publicly unelected Prime Minister in office, he asks: what have we learned?
Exiled from Downing Street, Boris Johnson may now be best known as the latest GB News presenter. His former senior advisor Dominic Cummings has reinvented himself as political pundit. And Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng have been ejected from high-level politics since their infamous mini budget of 2022.
But the chumocracy is far from over.
In this, the withering pre-election companion to his Sunday Times bestseller, Simon Kuper lists the lessons learned and Westminster pockets lined with his signature searing insight.
