Who is Steve Hilton?

He's the British immigrant backed by President Trump who is running to be the next governor of California.

Once a senior advisor to former prime minister David Cameron, Steve Hilton has since been on a journey – swapping Downing Street for Silicon Valley.

Having made his home in the US, Hilton is now running to become California’s Republican governor on a platform of cutting taxes and regulation.

We speak to Nicholas Watt, political editor of BBC Newsnight, who has known Hilton since his days advising Cameron.
