Some things are, indeed a bit poor - By: Maclennane, 05 Aug 2008 
...but not all of them. You know those 'and another thing' conversations down the pub orin the slightly drunk, slightly testy aftermath of a poor England result, when the hidden stand-up comedianin you & all your mates comes out? Well this is itin book form. Observations, both amusing & dull, but unerringly negative, it is a book to dipin & out of, probably positioned by the toilet. Any attempt at a longer session will resultin you throwing it across the room shouting 'get a grip, you whingeing, petulant Ladmag-reading mummies' boys.'
It is different to the usual Clarkson-style fare,in that it is anti-shouty Daily Mail oversimplification, but is guilty of its own right-on version.
Not for these lads the wry look, the backhanded compliment, or indeed any subtlety at all. But still worth the occasional grin. Do not buy it for your grumpy, but easily offended, grandad. It's a bit sweary.
Recycled Ben Elton - By: Gord, 02 May 2008 
Reads like a Ben Elton stand-up routine from the 80s & yes, it does manage to get the term "Thatcherite"in there.
This could be on the list of amusing stocking-filler type books but it's left wing bias gets tedious after a while & generally it reads like a poor attempt at "Grumpy Old Men" or "Clarkson".
Having said that, there are one or two uses of the "C" word that made me laugh :)
Is It just you ? - By: whippet, 23 Mar 2008 
A brilliant attack on everything from 'cafes that charge too much for hot drinks' to the 'daily mail'.Contains a bit too much swears then they really need, mind you I expect thay from a book with a swearin the title. The book makes good points on many subjects, though go way too far on others. Allin all a good book, but there are better things to spend your time on. If You hate The Daily Mail its a must have.
Not great, actually... - By: monkey-puzzle, 18 Mar 2008 
A very dull book that reads like a pretty average sort of blog; a series of not particularly amusing or inventive rants aimed at entirely predictable targets. It is astonishing really that it seems to have taken two people to write. It would however make a perfect stocking filler if you have to buy one for a dimwit.
It's REAL political correctness - not tokenism - By: savidad, 29 Dec 2007 
This is the sort of book that people need to read. It seems to be just another slag off text but, on closer inspection, it is not only the funniest thing I've readin a long time but, it has a real social conscience. It doesn't just prod, it gives a full on smackin the mouth to so many things that need it!
The only thing missing, for me, was an entry on Brian Sewell. This book would do him justice I think.
