The Daily Mash - Class Wars: A Field Guide To Being British

The Daily Mash - Class Wars: A Field Guide To Being British

The Daily Mash, a satirical website launched in 2008, rips the p*ss out of everyone no matter what class they are, mistakenly believe they are or wrongly aspire to be. If you're British, this book is for you.

In Britain, everyone knows their place. And, to ensure they never leave their allotted slot in the class hierarchy, they abhor both those who imagine themselves better than them above and those they're effortlessly superior to below.

But are the upper classes venal fops who think only of titles and money? Are the middle classes as petty and pathetically status-obsessed as they appear? Are the working classes all white van drivers consumed by Ginsters pasties and Ralph Lauren polo shirts? The answers to all three questions, obviously, is 'yes'. However, being British, we're able to laugh at our own foibles and more importantly to laugh at all those other pr*cks.

Whether you're a member of Britain's monarchy, aristocracy and political class, whether you're a Mail-reading xenophobe terrified of immigrants or a Guardian-reading liberal terrified of Arts Council cuts, or whether you have a proper job and support a lower-league football team, this is for you.

Not in the UK?

Fear not! Many items can still be ordered. Amazon in the UK delivers to many international territories, whilst their Australia, USA and Canada stores also supply many equivalent or imported items.

If you are in the North America, look out for US/Canadian flag icons on popular product listings for direct links.

If you order from a UK store, please note that the UK is in Region 2 and B, respectively, for DVDs and Blu-rays - check your player's compatibility, or look for multi-region products if you are located in another region.

If you are in Australia or New Zealand (DVD Region 4), note that almost all DVDs distributed in the UK by the BBC and 2entertain are encoded for both Region 2 and Region 4. The UK and Australasia are in the same Blu-ray region (B).
