What Is Wrong With The Welsh? Why Are They Mocked By The English?

...

About the Book

“Mocking the Welsh is the last permitted bigotry” - The Spectator,2009. It is entrenched in British lore, well documented by Shakespeare, and considered so disturbing that the Welsh Assembly has recently called for “an end to persistent anti-Welsh racism in the UK media”.

Both unfortunate and intrinsically unsavory characteristics of the English are identified, which are responsible for the mockery and other aspects of their culture.
