Fully updated with new material on Prince Andrew, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle, the paperback edition of the acclaimed polemic.
The royal family is the original Coronation Street—a long-running soap opera with the occasional real coronation thrown in. Its members have become celebrities, like upmarket versions of film stars and footballers. But they have also become a byword for arrogance, entitlement, hypocrisy, and indifference to the gigantic amount of public money wasted by them.
...And What Do You Do? is a hard-hitting analysis of the royal family, exposing its extravagant use of public money and the highly dubious behaviour of some among its ranks, whilst being critical of the knee-jerk sycophancy shown by the press and politicians.
By turns irreverent and uncompromising, ...And What Do You Do? asks important questions about the future of the world's most famous royal family.
'Norman Baker brilliantly exposes how a Ruritanian farce is ripping us off. Vive la British revolution!' - Kevin Maguire, Daily Mirror
'An important text for anyone who cares about our monarchy and wants to see it reform and evolve to face head on the challenges of the twenty-first century.' - Daily Telegraph
