Mark Latham is the original Outsider, a politician who rose to the very top of his
profession but refused to be cowed by political correctness and refused to bend
his knee to the leftist fads of the day. Outsiders is a thoughtfully curated collection
of Mark’s previously-published articles and thoughts on topics ranging from
political correctness to Islam, Donald Trump and Brexit.
Not only a superb raconteur, Mark writes as he speaks — with honesty,
extraordinary insights and above all a razor sharp wit and deep love for Australian
larrikinism.
If you can’t get enough of having your virtue signalled, of having your politics
determined by your identity, of saying the appropriate things to show how
compassionate and caring you are, of being trigger warned about being offended
by unsafe words and ideas, then avoid this book like a dose of the bubonic plague.
