This ‘tragedy in 4 acts’ is the perfect final word on Nadine Dorries’ fury at missing out on a peerage
As you’ll have seen elsewhere by now, former culture secretary and Boris Johnson cheerleader in chief isn’t very happy at missing out on a peerage. She’s not very happy at all.
"This story is about a girl from Liverpool who had something that was offered to her removed by two privileged posh boys."

Dorries’ ‘poor me’ routine got just the responses it deserved and we’re rounded up all our favourites here.
But before we move on there was this rather fabulous ‘tragedy in 4 acts’ posted by author @edwinhayward on Twitter and as final words go, it’s rather perfect.
Nadine Dorries, a tragedy in 4 acts.
The lights dim as our play begins…

2) Calls for the size of the House of Lords to be reduced, and points out the absurdity of the whole system. pic.twitter.com/LZQAioKras

3) Ratchets up her criticism of the HoL, and states that she will lobby to massively reduce the size of the Lords, limit the term of individual peers, and reduce their power. pic.twitter.com/bKw8UDhrZw

4) Goes on a truly epic and very public rant about the sinister forces that have conspired to keep her from entering the HoL.

Funniest thread you will read all day. It is only missing one gem, her statement to Piers Morgan about how all the really big heavy lifting work goes on in the institution she so reviles. https://t.co/w5PgARdhKo
