The Political Homes of Westminster – Dirty Deeds, Dark Dealings | A Spectator guided walk | Sunday 27 September | 3 - 5pm

In the shadow of the Houses of Parliament lie streets of elegant Georgian properties, the homes of political giants, but also the setting for decades of plots and power plays, for chicanery, cabals and conspiracies, subterfuge and skulduggery.

Ed Glinert, veteran tour guide, author of Penguin's London Compendium, will lead this trip through Westminster village and tell the stories of dirty deeds and dark dealings, Labour, Liberal, Tory and worse, courtesy of Oswald Mosley, Winston Churchill, Harold Wilson, Margaret Thatcher and a host of would-be honest brokers.
