> Longtime National MP Judith Collins is penning a tell-all book about her time in Government  
>  
>  
> \[…\] The book, which she has yet to name, will have her take on where she sees the country going and the opportunities she thinks should be embraced.  
> “But there will also be quite a large opportunity to go through some of the big events that I’ve been a party to, and part of, so I can give another angle.  
> “There are things when you are in Government sometimes you just can’t say and you just have to keep your mouth shut.  
> “**Now, I’m not in that position anymore.”**  
>  
> One area of focus for the book will be “what happened to me in 2014”.  
> That was the year the Dirty Politics book was published, exposing links between Collins and controversial former Whale Oil blogger Cameron Slater.  
>  
> She was forced to resign as Justice Minister shortly before the 2014 election but was later **cleared of wrongdoing in the Chisholm report.**  
> Collins said: “I can now actually tell what was going on behind the scenes and what was happening – for anyone who is interested in politics they might find it deeply thrilling at times.”
