Gavin Barwell has done just about every job in the Conservative Party that it's possible for anyone to do: he's been a grassroots activist, worked on campaigns at CCHQ, become an MP and a minister, entered Number Ten as Chief of Staff to the PM and is now a Tory peer. Here he talks about what made him a Conservative, about what's happened to the Party in recent years, and of course about his turbulent time in Downing Street with Theresa May - the subject of his recent, and highly praised memoir.
