"We need critics like Boot to be ruthless in their analyses Of conventional wisdom" - Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali

"Alexander Boot is a provocative thinker and good writer" - Simon Heffer

Boot says the unsayable, that Democracy has lost its former role as merely an important element in the political mix. Now uncontested, it has become an empty slogan and a devious trick.
