<p><b><i>The Fall of Boris Johnson</i> is the explosive inside account of how a prime minister lost his hold on power. From Sebastian Payne, former Whitehall Editor for the <i>Financial Times </i>and author of <i>Broken Heartlands</i>.</b><br><br><b>Winner of the Parlimentary Book Awards</b><br><b>A <i>New Statesman</i>, <i>The Times</i>, <i>Daily Mail</i> and<i> FT </i>Book of the Year</b><br><b>'Revelatory' - <i>The Daily Telegraph</i><br>'Delicious detail' - <i>The Times</i></b><br><br>Boris Johnson was touted as the saviour of the country and the Conservative Party, obtaining a huge commons majority and finally 'getting Brexit done'. But, within three short years, he was deposed in disgrace and left the country in crisis.<br><br>Sebastian Payne tells the essential behind-the-scenes story, charting the series of scandals that felled Johnson: from the blocked suspension of Owen Paterson, through partygate and the final death blow: the Chris Pincher allegations. This is the full narrative of the betrayals, rivalries and resignations that resulted in the dramatic Conservative coup - and set in motion those events that saw the party sink to catastrophic new lows.<br><br>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 Johnson's downfall. This is a gripping and timely look at how power is gained, wielded and lost in Britain today.<br><br><b>'Genuinely page-turning' - Andrew Marr<br>'Entertaining and illuminating' - Tim Shipman</b></p>
