The Downing Street Guide to Party Etiquette: The funniest political satire of the year! by Verity Bigg-Knight

Partygate? More like party GREAT!

While the UK locked down to prevent the spread of COVID-19, Boris Johnson's Number Ten played host to a series of boozy shindigs. Now, for the first time, you can learn to get wasted like they do in Whitehall. The Downing Street Party Guide will take you through every stage of a successful, pandemic-defying bash, from drafting invitations to answering awkward questions later.

Contents include:
* Decor tips to avoid a 'John Lewis nightmare'.
* The perfect playlist to start a Cabinet conga line.
* How to handle the subsequent police investigation.

WHAT HAPPENS IN DOWNING STREET STAYS IN DOWNING STREET...UNTIL SOMEONE LEAKS IT.

About Verity Bigg-Knight

Verity Bigg-Knight was born in Kensington in 1988.
Her father is Sir Adrian Edgcumbe Miles Bigg-Knight, 2nd Baronet, but that doesn't mean she didn't work really hard for everything she has. She attended St Hortensia's School for Sociable Girls before reading History of Art at the University of Bridgeford (she got a third, which was actually impressive, given her best mate, Tuffy Lloyd-George, broke her leg skiing a week before exams). During her time at uni, she threw many widely praised bashes, including a 'pimps and hos' party so convincing it was shut down by the Met's Vice Unit.
Upon graduating, she set up a company, Verity's Large Evenings, with nothing but her own blood, sweat and tears (plus a GBP2 million loan from Daddy). This bespoke party-planning service has been tremendously successful: its clients include Princess Eugenie, Mumford & Sons and half the cast of Made in Chelsea. Her events boast a diverse range of guests, from businessmen to businessmen's wives, Etonians to Harrovians, billionaires to only-just-millionaires. Verity is also a committed activist for social justice, frequently sharing woke infographics on Instagram. Her dream is to start a foundation to teach underprivileged kids the correct pronunciation of wines.
The Downing Street Guide to Party Etiquette is her first book (written, not read).
