What is The Cabinet Minister about?
There’s nothing right honourable about MP Sir Julian Twombley. His wife, Lady Katherine, and son, Brook, have run up massive debts and now his political reputation is in the balance. The House of Commons is far from a safe space for him and the newspapers are sniffing blood. Can he save face and hang on to his sanity?
