in 2020 the world faced it biggest crisis in a generation: A global pandemic. In the UK, it exposed deep divisions within society and laid bare a toxic culture war that had been raging beneath the surface. From the outset, Piers Morgan urged the nation to come to its senses, once and for all, and held the Government to often ferocious account over its handling of the crisis. COVID 19 shed shocking light on the problems that plague our society. Stockpilers and lockdown cheats revealed our grotesque levels of self-interest. Millennials flocked to parks for picnics, proving the rank hypocrisy of the supposedly "socially conscious". Attention- seeking celebrities tried to make the war about their struggle. And the virtue-signaling woke brigade continued their furious assault on free speech, shutting down debate on important issues like gender, racism and feminism. Yet just as coronavirus exposed our flaws, it also showcased our strengths. We saw selfless bravery in the heroic efforts of our healthcare staff. A greater appreciation of migrant workers. The return of local community spirit. And inspiring, noble acts from members of the public. Trade Paperback ed 2020.
