Patronising Bastards: How the Elites Betrayed Britain

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of 50 People Who Buggered Up Britain, Quentin Letts, comes his blistering new book on how Britain`s out-of-touch, illiberal elite fills its boots.`HILARIOUS` Daily Mail`With its vicious takedowns, Quentin Letts` laugh-out-loud Patronising Bastards will have the lefty-elite running scared` The SunNot since Marie Antoinette said `Let them eat cake` have the peasants been so revolting. Western capitalism`s elites are bemused: Brexit, Trump, and maybe more eruptions to follow. But their rulers were so good to them! Hillary Clinton called the ingrates `a basket of deplorables`, Bob Geldof flicked them a V sign, Tony Blair thought voters too thick to understand the question. Wigged judges stared down their legalistic noses at a surging, pongy populous.These people who know best, these snooterati with their faux-liberal ways, are the `Patronising Bastards`. Their downfall is largely of their own making – their Sybaritic excesses, an obsession with political correctness, the prolonged rape of reason and rite. You`ll find these self-indulgent show-ponys not just in politics and the cloistered old institutions but also in high fashion, football, among the clean-eating foodies and at the Baftas and Oscars, where celebritydom hires PR smoothies to massage reputations and mislead, distort, twist. Political columnist and bestselling author Quentin Letts identifies these condescending creeps and their networks, their methods and their dubious morals. Letts kebabs them like mutton. It`s baaaahd. It`s juicy.Richard Branson, Emma Thompson, Shami Chakrabarti, Jean-Claude Juncker and any head waiter who calls you `young man` – this one`s for you!
