With unparalleled access to those who were in the room when key decisions were made, Payne tells of the miscalculations and mistakes that led to Boris’s downfall, only two years after he first entered No.10 Downing Street.This is a gripping and timely look at how power is gained, wielded, and lost in Britain today.
