About this Event

Westminster, home of democracy and government, but also of depravity, immorality, nepotism and incompetence, featuring a host of characters, some up to no good, others heroic – Oliver Cromwell, the Nazi ambassador to the UK, George Orwell, Isaac Newton, the prince formerly known as Andrew, Larry the Cat, Samuel Pepys, Liz Truss and more.

Join *Ed Glinert, leading London historian and tour guide, on this eye-opening, fascinating, hilarious Christmas Day walk, perfectly timed to fit between breakfast and dinner.

*Ed Glinert is the author of Penguin’s London Compendium, the leading book on the capital this century, currently being updated for the 25th anniversary in 2028. He is also the author of Penguin’s East End Chronicles and West End Chronicles.
