Biography
Henry Morris is the man who convinced the country he was a Tory MP with his Secret Tory Twitter account.
He has been variously described as “the Banksy of Twitter”, “the trending Craig Brown” or as Reform MP Lee Anderson put it, “some bloke who looks like the Tiger King.”
He now writes for The New World, Prospect Magazine, PNG Courier and several doomed UK legacy titles. He is also a comedian, ultra marathon runner and biodiversity enthusiast. As the self-appointed Papua New Guinea Courier UK correspondent, his Letters From London have earned him almost as many fact-checks as he’d had threats of litigation. A personal trainer, Henry spends his spare time dabbling in stand-up, putting on raves, stopping birds of prey from being killed by toffs, setting cryptic crosswords, producing open-air Shakespeare, and irregularly appearing on podcasts like Oh God, What Now?
His third book, The Tories: A Tragedy was a five act Shakespearean verse play about the fourteen years of Conservative chaos before they had to give back control to Labour. It was published by Mudlark/ HarperCollins in September 2024.
