Amis misses the point
THE once best-selling writer Martin Amis arrives in the uk to share his views on Brexit. It is, he opines, a ‘self-inflicted wound’, a retrograde step back into a ‘nostalgic utopia’.
‘It would return to just the sort of England that I don’t like, which is the country town, rustic, beer-drinking, familybutcher England.’ Indeed, that is what most people like about this country, Mr Amis.
But it’s something a luvvie who flits between chattering-class salons in New York and London will never understand.
