Summary
Nadine Dorries' new book "The Plot" claims Boris Johnson was ousted by a cabal called "The Movement" that has been controlling the Tory leadership for two decades. Matt puts those claims to the test by speaking to Patrick Maguire - who read the book cover to cover, Danny Finkelstein - an alleged member of "The Movement", and Stephen Greenhalgh - an ally of Boris Johnson.
Plus: Columnists Manveen Rana and Matthew Syed discuss Suella Braverman's claim that the Met police is biased towards pro-Palestinian activists, what Rishi Sunak should do about her and whether buying a Lordship at auction is worth the money.
