In ...And What Do You Do?, the author presents a thought-provoking analysis of the British royal family's position in modern society. The book delves into the intricate relationship between the monarchy and the public, scrutinizing how the royal family has evolved into a celebrity-like entity, akin to a high-profile soap opera. The narrative reveals the duality of their existence, where members are both revered and criticized, embodying a blend of glamour and controversy.

The author highlights the extravagant lifestyle of the royals, drawing attention to their financial dealings and the extensive public funds that support their lavish way of life. Through a critical lens, ...And What Do You Do? challenges the reader to consider the implications of such opulence in a time when economic disparity is increasingly scrutinized.

It critiques the often uncritical support from the press and politicians, prompting readers to think about the relevance and sustainability of a royal family in contemporary Britain. With a blend of irreverence and seriousness, ...And What Do You Do? invites a deeper examination of an institution that has long been a fixture in British life.
