| Publisher Description: Sometimes outrageous, always courageous, this broadside is aimed squarely at Britain's self-serving elites. Garry writes with feeling and humor about the causes closest to his heart. He is for England, for the working class, and for democracy. He's against the EU ("the greatest stitch-up since the Bayeux Tapestry"), unfettered immigration, and the nanny state with its smoking bans and booze lectures. Garry challenges every aspect of the modern world from throw-away celebrity culture to the self-loathing Guardian mentality. From Live Earth to wind turbines, from pop politicians to the PC police, all manner of fashionable nonsense is judged and found wanting as Garry declares war on New Labour and the Cameron Tories.Wearing middle class disdain as a badge of honor, Garry stands up for Joe Public as he demands more freedom and less bureaucracy, and champions the everyday people who make Britain great. With the same blend of killer one-liners and politically incorrect wit that makes his TV column such an essential read, Garry's comments will surprise and amuse, but above all provoke.
