The Rhetoric of Brexit Humour: Comedy, Populism and the EU Referendum - Paperback

by Simon Weaver (Author)

This book explores the comedy that has emerged following the UK's vote to leave the European Union. Analysing a range of comedy on the EU referendum and Brexit, it examines the populist languages of Brexit, from both leave and remain camps, as deeply ironic, ambiguous and speculative discourses.
