For the best part of thirty years he has lived at close quarters with power, steering the UK government’s message through the Good Friday Agreement, the Kosovo conflict and the Iraq war, and learning how the machinery underpinning government really works.
Autocrats are back in fashion, culture wars dominate the press, AI and social media have demolished truth. These are the forces steadily pulling our democracies apart, and Alastair Campbell has witnessed their impact first-hand.
Campbell unpacks how it all came to this, and what really happens in the corridors of power, drawing on the stories that rarely reach the official record. It promises to be an honest and refreshingly insightful night in the company of someone who has not just observed our politics, but had a hand in making it.
