The Political Party

Show 291 - Gavin Barwell

Gavin has a unique perspective on politics, government and the Conservative Party having served as both an MP and the Prime Minister's Chief of Staff. Unusually he was an MP first, but having lost his seat in 2017, was hired by Theresa May to be her most senior adviser. Gavin takes us inside the Brexit negotiations, with some surprising insights on some of Europe's major players. It's also a defence of Theresa May and the values of public service and how she contrasts with some of her successors... Follow Gavin on Twitter: @GavinBarwell Buy tickets to The Political Party, live at The Duchess Theatre here: https://nimaxtheatres.com/shows/the-political-party-with-matt-forde/Forthcoming guests include:7 Nov: David Dimbleby14 Nov: Jake Berry5 Dec: Rachel Reeves19 Dec: Christmas Special including music from MP423 Jan: Emily Maitlis and Jon Sopel6 March: Eddie Izzard Hosted on Acast.
