She was voted Backbencher of the Year in 1998 which led to her being elevated to the Conservative Shadow Cabinet as Health Spokeswoman.

In 1997 she famously accused Michael Howard, her political boss, of having “something of the night” about him, following a departmental dispute for which she took the rap.
