With the Tories' scramble to be the "primus inter pares" I had to think of a book I read a long time ago
First among Equals by Jeffrey Archer, 1984.
"First Among Equals is a 1984 novel by British author Jeffrey Archer, which follows the careers and personal lives of four fictional British politicians (Simon Kerslake, MP for Coventry Central and later Pucklebridge; Charles Seymour, MP for Sussex Downs; Raymond Gould, MP for Leeds North; and Andrew Fraser, MP for Edinburgh Carlton) from 1964 to 1991, with each vying to become Prime Minister."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Among_Equals_(novel)
Interesting is to read the remarks on wiki about the partial rewrite between UK to US version of the book and the reasoning
I also didn't know that a TV series was made by Granada and broadcasted in 1986 by Itv.
