What does Derek Draper do?

Derek Draper is a former lobbyist turned psychologist and author.

His career in politics, which began in 1990, had its controversial moments.

In 1996 he became a lobbyist and two years later a conversation caught on tape landed Derek the starring role in what tabloids called "lobbygate".

At the time he was working for the Daily Express but got sacked due to the drama.

In 2009 he launched the LabourList website, but after another scandal involving the discussion of a smear campaign he was forced to step down.

After leaving politics, he retrained as a psychologist and has written about this subject for a number of outlets.

He's also has his own podcast which is focused on psychology and has presented on Talk Radio UK.
