Class acting

Parody politics

Just watched an 'interview' with the man as a bit of BBC 'news'. There's TV show to go with, apparently.

It's supposedly a story about 'class', but what I saw was a total lack of it.

A point that the blonde and bouffant 'we just read it out' presenters, with their incisive interviewing style, failed to help our spinning moral compass-endowed ex-DPM to distinguish from education, money, Toffs, snobs looking down on folk, etc.

Like the lobbies of Westminster are not oozing with those who have got there by, and are now profiting from all the various systems of 'privilege' can confer.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.

Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.

I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
