Description

How does it feel to lose your job in front of ten million people?

To ask a Government Whip for time to see your husband?

To represent the Secretary of State for Health at a family planning clinic on the day you fail your fifth IVF cycle?

To be loved and hated by people who don't even know you?

To be the second black woman elected to Parliament? To be a Jewish woman representing a largely Muslim constituency?

To be the only MP who likes house music? A decade is a long time in politics, and in these candid diaries Oona King shows how she has changed since becoming an MP in 1997.

From the intense strain on her marriage, to her desperate struggle to have a baby, Oona reveals how she chose to abandon her political ambition in favour of another: to have a life.
