Interesting read
There's a lot of recent history and politics to get your teeth into here. I seem to have the same views as the author in these areas. The publisher didn't seem to edit the text very effectively. There's a huge amount of repetition that gets on your nerves a bit but that's not the author's fault.

Highly recommended, and a good read.
Subtitled 'British Elitism and the Entitlement Illusion', there is a lot of immediately relevant material about how we come to be governed by the likes of David Cameron (who brought on the Brexit referendum), Boris Johnson, George Osborne and the rest of the cast of Oxbridge dysfunctionals. This develops Nick Duffell's years of work on the damaging effects of boarding schools, how they produce emotionally illiterate, over-confident Bullingdon types, along with the collaterally-damaged others. It's a remarkably gripping and entertaining read, giving plenty of insight both into the effects of boarding school and the character of so many of our politicians.
