Middle Class Vigil for Refugees
Working Class Vigil for Refugees
The poorer you are, the more pissed off you are that even poorer people than you are making daring and darting runs across the English Channel and are successfully living lives of abject misery in hostels and hotels across the country. The Upper Class Hotel Inspector, the monocled Rupert the Bear look alike Nigel Farage is keeping us all notified on a daily basis how our taxes are being spent looking after people who don't look like us.
Now it's a sweeping and frankly downright insulting generalisation to call the Working Class racist but I would wager my monthly Universal Credit that there are higher numbers of the prejudiced among who might be considered as the Working Class today. It is not the bicycle riding, blue collar, pipe smoking weekend rambler of the 1950s anymore. It is the "Get your facking poxy hands off of our statue of Winston Churchill and Baden Powell's love child"
The brave topplers of the Edward Colston Statue in Bristol were mostly middle class. I'll wager my weekly Carer's Allowance on that. Sure there would be your sprinkling of Socialist Workers Party but they looked a well educated bunch to me and once again I return to my 'bete noir' of education. The ladies and gentlemen in picture 2 are likely not to have had a University education especially the Veterans who would have been recruited from their sink school at 16 and then returned home by their late thirties, early forties to an area and a country that they do not recognise. "They have moved in, the people wot we were fighting in the dust of Afghanistan and Iraq. My comrades have got PTSD fighting for this country and they can't even get any decent accommodation"
Now I could probably make a convincing argument for either side marching in Cesspit Britain at the moment but my argument, my beef is with those in the corridors of power, is with those in the staff room of Eton College and the even darker corridors of Buckingham Palace.
Britain's elite, backed by Russian oligarchs and Saudi Princes are the Portable Toilet Operatives of Cesspit Britain. It's yer Jacob Rees Mogg's, yer Stanley Johnson's ably assisted by the Brylcreem Boy on the opposition establishment benches who are protecting the status quo and keeping everybody down with their face masks and hand gel. As long as everybody sends their kids to school to keep feeding their herd immunity, they are happy. While we, the middle class educated are fighting the working class prejudiced, Prince Andrew will continue to be in his counting house, counting out his money.
