Format:Paperback
A touching, harrowing contribution to the misery memoir genre - the story of one man's struggle with sexual inadequacy, his fears of repressed homosexuality, and the humiliation his dreadful flatulence daily heaps on him. Anyone who has a heart should buy this book out of social concern.

In the words of Soren Kierkegaard, "The most terrible fight is not when there is one opinion against another, the most terrible is when two men say the same thing -- and fight about the interpretation, and this interpretation involves a difference of quality." I cannot help that this terrible fight must come to exist between those foremost modern thinkers, Richard Littlejohn and Jeremy "I like cars" Clarkson. And when it does, the difference of quality will surely favour Clarkson because he did that DVD of crashing things into caravans.

Top flight! Once more John LittleRichard hits the nail on the head, we're losing what made this country great - hack journalism.
In a deftly coded satire on modern journalism Littlejohn reminds us of The Daily Mail's support of Oswald Mosley and the British Union of Fascists.
With his continual reference to 'recycling nazis' and 'the country our grandparents fought for' he brilliantly alludes to the papers owner Lord Rothermere, a friend and supporter of both Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler, which influenced the Mail's political stance toward them up to 1939.
If you like LittleJohns opinions I urge you to get somebody to read it out aloud for you, priceless!

He should be PM
I used to believe Richard Littlejohn was a far-right bigot. Maybe that was because I'd been told so by the so-called left-wing, who these days seem about as left-wing as Lord Haw... Read more

Brilliant
In short this is the funniest and at the same time most serious book about the diabolical mess the Labour party has left this country in. A must read. Everyone should have a copy. Read more
