THE INSTANT TOP TWO SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER From leading MP Chris Bryant, the inside story of misconduct in parliament - and how we can help solve it. 'Takes a bulldozer to the crumbling edifice of parliamentary standards' JAMES O'BRIEN * 'Absolutely riveting' REVEREND RICHARD COLES * 'Lively, forensic, engrossing' OBSERVER * 'Vital' ALASTAIR CAMPBELL * 'Blisteringly topical' TELEGRAPH * 'Rollicking' i-PAPER * 'Unputdownable' CAROL VORDERMAN Having spent years as Chair of the Committees on Standards and Privileges, Chris Bryant has been in the thick of the battle over standards in parliament. Cronyism, nepotism, conflicts of interest, misconduct and lying: politicians are engaging in these activities more frequently than ever before, with dangerous results for our democracy. Taking us inside the Pugin-carpeted corridors of Westminster, from the prime minister's office to the Strangers' Bar, Code of Conduct examines how parliament has got into this mess and suggests how it might - at last - get its house in order.

He was the first gay MP to celebrate his civil partnership in the Palace of Westminster.
Rezensionen
So is this "the worst parliament in history"? An answer in the affirmative comes from the Labour MP Sir Chris Bryant. He delivers a lively, forensic, engrossing, sometimes entertaining, often disturbing and always unflinching interrogation of what's gone wrong with our legislature. Sir Chris is the chairman of the committees on standards and privileges, and his previous works include a masterly biography of parliament. So he knows his way around its pinnacles and sewers. He also has firsthand experience of how grotesquely some fellow MPs can behave
