All members are invited to join Pembridge, Lancaster Gate and Bayswater wards and former Westminster MP, Mark Field, for an evening of canapes and drinks as he discusses his new book, The End of an Era.
Mark Field spent two decades in the adrenaline-filled, egotistical and stressful world of Parliament, culminating in two years as a Foreign Office Minister alongside Boris Johnson and Rory Stewart. During his time in Parliament, he had a remarkable capacity for getting into high-profile scrapes, most famously in his close friendship with future Prime Minister Liz Truss, his skirmish with protesters at Mansion House and the David Cameron Piggate controversy.
PRAISE FOR THE END OF AN ERA
“This book tells a searingly honest tale in its appraisal of the failings of the British political class over recent decades.” Andrew Neil, columnist at the Daily Mail and former editor of the Sunday Times
“I am so glad to have read this intelligent, absorbing and insightful book. It is both self-aware and observant. Take a front-row seat and watch modern Conservative and parliamentary history march past.” Daniel Finkelstein, columnist at The Times
“A wonderfully engaging book, which gives a real insight into political life and the mess that the UK finds itself in.” Isabel Oakeshott, political journalist and broadcaster
“A fantastically well-written and brilliantly entertaining account of our modern political times.”
Andrew Pierce, Sunday Times bestselling author and consultant editor at the Daily Mail
“Honest and self-aware, unlike many Tories of his era, Mark Field’s warts-and-all engaging account is well worth the read to better understand what happened and why.” Kevin Maguire, associate editor at the Daily Mirror
