20 years as an MP. 10 cabinet positions, 5 general elections and serving under 4 prime ministers. During his political career, Michael Gove has pretty much seen and done it all. As he says himself, no-one in politics is a conscript. He and others are volunteers who willingly choose their fate. But office can and does take its toll and in Surviving Politics, Michael talks candidly with politicians from different parties about the strengths and skills needed to survive when things get tough.
