Summary
Gareth Roberts joins Will Kingston on Fire at Will to discuss his controversial new book Middle Class Holes – a satirical takedown of Britain's most irritating middle-class public figures and institutions. In this wide-ranging conversation, Gareth explains what makes a "middle class hole", why virtue signalling and political sanctimony have become so prevalent, and how Britain's cultural elite became disconnected from ordinary voters. The discussion covers figures including Owen Jones , Emily Maitlis , Steve Coogan , Banksy , Jess Phillips , and the activist group Led By Donkeys , alongside debates about Brexit, Donald Trump, identity politics, media bias, activism, class, and the state of modern British culture.
