What Does Boris Johnson Really Think?

~What Does Boris Johnson Really Think? Is there an overall philosophy or ideology which explains the prime minister's politics and indicates how he is likely to govern the country? Nick Robinson explores this question in conversation with friends, colleagues and close observers of Boris Johnson during his path to Downing Street.

We examine Mr Johnson's thinking on key domestic themes such as economic policy, regional devolution, infrastructure and the role of the state. We explore his own claim that he is a 'Brexity Hezza'.

Critics have accused Mr Johnson of stoking racial prejudice and division in his use of language. We ask former colleagues and observers about the truth of his views on race and immigration.

Can a coherent narrative be detected in Mr Johnson's political journey, or is he a chameleon, adapting to his environment in the pursuit of power?
