Former UK cabinet minister Dorries blurs fact and fiction

Former UK cabinet minister and Boris Johnson supporter, Nadine Dorries in an interview in the Financial Times Weekend said: “I’m Liverpool Irish. There is something in the Irish DNA that makes people write in a way that works.”

She is an author, selling three million copies.

Elsewhere in the interview with the FT’s chief features writer, Henry Mance, Dorries says that the NHS could pay nurses more if it paid management consultants less.

Nothing wrong with those sentiments from a woman who supports Johnson and Brexit.

She recounts being abused by a Catholic priest.

On the civil service she says: “Everything comes down to leadership... My experience of the civil service is that, if you value it and work with it, it works like nothing else."

Mance concludes that Dorries blurs fact and fiction so easily that he is not even sure she notices it.
