"There's only one word that describes the parties held at number 10 during lockdown. It's not Partygate; its Clusterf**k" Guto Harri, a trusted advisor to then PM Boris Johnson explains his account of what went on behind the shiny black door of No.10 Downing Street. As the evidence against the PM mounted and the country's love/hate relationship with him increasingly turned to anger and disgust, Guto gives us exclusive access to what was happening inside No.10. Why did Boris deny the parties took place? What did he think of Sue Grey and was there ever a route for him to cling on to his position? As the walls closed in and the PM faced criminal proceedings, no-one knew how this would play out. This is Unprecedented. Archive Credits:1. PA Media2. LBC / Global3. Parliament Live TV4. BBC News 5.

Brexit, Covid, Partygate, lockdowns, leaks, the war in Ukraine, a cost-of-living crisis and the scandals that plagued our politics. Guto Harri was in the room when the big decisions were made. In this podcast, expect unprecedented access behind the shiny black door of Number 10 Downing Street, during one of the most chaotic periods in British political history. Guto was Boris Johnson’s Communications Chief. When he first walked over the Number 10 threshold, things weren’t normal. A set of circumstances, scandals and chaos that will never be repeated. It was unprecedented.
