So says Sarah Vine in The DM

Woke: alert to injustice in society, especially racism.

In no particular order, we endured the increasingly shrill demands of Greta Thunberg, the Duchess of Sussex putting 'changemakers' on the cover of Vogue, Jo 'identify as whatever you want' Swinson, Extinction Rebellion, the Marks & Spencer LGBT sandwich, Prince Harry announcing he'll have only two children to save the planet — and countless other examples of gratingly right-on virtue-signalling.

	It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

Very much a Marmite person I know, but there is always a serious message behind most of what he says, specially in his TV shows. I love him.

	Don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to.
