16:15Now PlayingVanessa Feltz is joined by parliamentary sketch writer Quentin Letts to discuss his latest column: Why we're being led by duds and dullards.
From Sir Justin Welby to Paula Vennells, from Simon Case to Sir Keir Starmer, Quentin Letts says that society is being led by 'unexceptionable' individuals.
Mr Letts argues that 'public life used to fizz with mavericks', who have been 'killed off'.
He writes, " The energy of punk has ebbed to something altogether more tame. Pulses slow, appetites wane, the nation slowly subsides into lassitude. And our ‘normie’ elite thinks ‘job done – we’ll be safe in our jobs now’."
