As a follow on from the previous blog post "Prejudiced towards the Posh" I would like to extend the study further into pomposity. Pompousness is something that I would associate with a guest on Radio 4's Moral Maze. An academic Professor like Jordan Peterson in my opinion is a pompous ass.
Can you be pompous if you are not posh? Pomposity is arrogance in posh people in my opinion. Would you get a pompous working class person? You can have stuck up people who look down on others but is this pomposity?
I see pomposity as a way of speaking. If you are pompous then you are condescending, sarcastic, believing the person you are dealing with to be inferior and ignorant.
Nigel Farage and Rupert Lowe are pompous. Like Richard Tice, they believe that their public school education has given them an advantage over the Comprehensive and Secondary Modern oiks who vote Reform UK. They have to tone things down in front of the plebs but you can imagine the noise when they and their ilk are all alone in the drawing room and the brandy and cigars are brought out.
Yesterday in Parliament when Starmer was talking about grifters and conmen and Nigel Farage stood up as if on command, Rupert Lowe on the bench behind Farage started pissing himself with pompous laughter. Farage's working class batman Lee Anderson was most put out "Will you shut up"
We have been run by pompous asses since Margaret Thatcher took the plum out of the greengrocer's shop and put it in her mouth. I am convinced that how somebody speaks is a greater indicator of their personality than any other trait or action. Think about John Major and Keir Starmer both with that back of the throat south of england stockbroker belt soporific monotony which could put a glass eye to sleep.
Two of the most pompous Prime Ministers we've had in living memory are David Cameron and Boris Johnson, Eton and the Bullingdon Club. You cannot hide that level of privilege. With smaller class sizes and all the advantages that 'Public School' privately educated pupils enjoy these two were pomposity on stilts but the question still has to be asked how the hell did their pompous asses get so high up within the Conservative Party that they were able to be voted in as Prime Minister over a country of horrible bastards.
Since the demonisation of small boat migrants by the right wing I have begun to refer to Britain and its right wing xenophobic electorate as horrible bastards. There can be no better description of them. People who worship pompous, posh public school educated pimps over poor migrants escaping their war torn hellscape for the imperious, imperialist, sceptic isle. I bet you couldn't describe one of these small boat migrants as pompous "Oh hello darling, we've arrived in the country that gave the world Wimbledon, any Pimms and strawberries and cream for us?"
If I haven't heard pompous for a while and am being driven mad by local vernacular then I just turn on BBC Radio 4, the home of posh and pomposity in Britain. The fact that the posh and pompous are in thrawl to their Zionist overlords makes their own white privilege shrink somewhat. They might Lord it over the rest of us but they still have to bow down to Netanyahu and his genocidairs because it was one of their own Arthur James Balfour who drew up the declaration for the settlement of a Jewish Homeland in Palestine and it is these posh and pompous bastards that have proscribed Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation.
As I continue to claim, Britain and the British are horrible bastards.
