Contemporary satire

[mattviatura]

Can anyone recommend examples of the above please?

Is there anyone who writes in a similar vein to Ben Elton, perhaps with a less lefty-leaning bias?

I take it that's a "no", then.

Try Lionel Asbo - Martin Amis.

Anything Ian Hislop has ever written

Thanks, been meaning to read Lionel Asbo. I didn't even know Hislop had written books.

Bit mixed but might fit the bill

Christopher Brookmeyer's crime novels are fairly satirical as, of course, is much of the Pratchett output.
