Sharing a close-up of the book’s front cover, the 55-year-old wrote: "BREAKING: PUBLICATION DAY!If you're sick of being told by the howling woke brigade how to think, speak and behave, or what to watch, laugh at, eat or drink - then you'll love my new book. It's time to cancel the cancel culture."

The book looks set to be a big hit. Back in July, Wake Up had already topped bestsellers' lists months before its release. Piers shared an image on Instagram showing his book at the top of UK Politics book sales on online retailer Amazon.

As a family snap flashed up on screen, Piers teased: "They have all got their father's looks," before continuing to say: "I encourage them to speak their own minds, argue with me. But if they are going to argue with me over dinner, they better come armed as I am going to take them down. Why wouldn't you want your kids to be opinionated?"
