Isaac Levido has established a formidable reputation as a election strategist, helping to craft wins both in the UK and Australia. Thought of as a protege of the quasi-legendary election guru Sir Lynton Crosby in his early years, he’s rapidly racked up achievements of his own, propelling both Scott Morrison and Boris Johnson back into office with his brand of data-driven analysis.

Stephen Smith opens the black box that is electoral strategising and sets out to understand the mind of the man who is set to shape the Conservatives’ impending general election campaign.

Guests:

Katy Balls, Political Editor of The Spectator
Alexander Downer, former leader of the Australian Liberal Party
Paul Stephenson, Vote Leave Campaign Director
Lord Andrew Feldman, former chair of the Conservative Party
David Bold, friend and Australian political advisor
