One year ago, two new Conservative MPs gave Christopher Hope no-holds-barred accounts of their experiences of standing in the 2019 General Election. Twelve months later, Richard Holden, MP for North West Durham and Joy Morrissey, MP for Beaconsfield, return to the podcast - though sadly not to the Red Lion pub.
As they reflect on their mad first year in the job, Joy tells us why 2020 has shown party loyalty isn't just about Brexit, Richard insists there's no 'buyer's remorse' from Blue Wall Tory voters in the north of England, and both our guests agree that being an MP ruins your social life.
