Britain is dominated by an oligarchy of professional egalitarians. Their aim is not to raise popular aspirations but to exploit mass taste, mass gullibility, or mass spending power for their own advantage. The author shows their populism is in fact 'a perversion of democracy, the sickness of the age'.
