James Mark Court Delingpole (born 6 August 1965) is an English columnist and novelist who has written for a number of publications, including: Daily Mail, Daily Express, The Times, The Daily Telegraph, and The Spectator. He is executive editor for the London branch of the Breitbart News Network. He has published several novels and four political books. He describes himself as being a libertarian conservative, and has been described as a "prominent voice of the right". He has published articles expressing his belief in the non existence of significant anthropogenic global warming and his opposition to wind power.
Delingpole was raised in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, the son of a factory owner. He attended Malvern College, an independent school for boys, followed by Christ Church, Oxford, where he studied English Language and Literature.
Delingpole claims to be a satirist and has written that the function of "satire is not only to make us laugh, but also, with luck, to draw our attention to the things that are wrong with the world and help mock them into extinction."
In addition to writing articles and commentary for the Daily Mail, Daily Express, The Times, The Daily Telegraph, and The Spectator, Delingpole has published four political books including: How to be Right: The Essential Guide to Making Lefty Liberals History, Welcome to Obamaland: I Have Seen Your Future and It Doesn't Work, and 365 Ways to Drive a Liberal Crazy. His writing for the book Welcome to Obamaland has been called an "engaging, witty writing style," and "at least original and amusing" by otherwise critical author John Wright.
