Code of Conduct: Why We Need to Fix Parliament is a non-fiction book by the Labour MP Chris Bryant. It was published on 17 August 2023 by Bloomsbury.[1]
Content
Much of Code of Conduct focuses on Bryant's experience as a chair of the Commons Standards Committee.[1]
Code of Conduct covers topics including constitutional reform, bullying and corruption.[2] In the book Bryant, describes that his time as priest taught him not to be a fundamentalist.[3]
Reception
Code of Conduct received mostly positive reviews by critics.
A review in The Telegraph criticised the fact that much of Code of Conduct was out of date, because it frequently refers to Boris Johnson, but it was Johnson's successor's successor, Rishi Sunak, who was the Prime Minister when it was published.[4]
The Church Times reviewed the book very favourably, describing its style as "vigorous colloquial" noting that this may come from Bryant's time as a Church of England priest.[5] Code of Conduct was reviewed favourably by the former Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards, Kathryn Stone in The House magazine.[6]
