Those who don't have the foreman's job, at last.

In June this year he defined the working class as people who have no savings.  

[Old_Geezer]

Ask him something easier first, for crying out loud.

 

Ask him what a woman is first.

[naomi24]

That would be pushing it, OG.

Rachel Reeves' definition is "working people are those people who go out and work and earn their money through hard work."

 

Her salary is £164,000. Does she not go out and work and earn her money through hard work?

 

Her definition is daft.

[rockyracoon]

So, he can't define 'working class'!

Holidays and education.  So everyone then.

[douglas9401]

Working class like so much in the modern world is a flexible state of mind and being.

Like Conservative compassion.

[naomi24]

Or Labour socialism ....

[Old_Geezer]

Not £164,000's worth. No one is worth that.

[douglas9401]

You're right, OG, that's why I donate anything over £150,000 PA

to the Home For The Bewildered In Denial.

A worthy cause and much needed in these troubled times.

[Old_Geezer]

Careful. If you're getting £150,000 pa then your employer may be retiring there soon !

[douglas9401]

Paid on results, OG, like Tora and YMB. 🤣

Only five classes in the UK nowadays.One-the working classes(most of whom dont have a proper job) who have been out demonstrating/rioting on the streets against mass uncontrolled immigration.Two-the lower middle classes who escaped from the working class and work for a living.Three and four-the middle middle and the upper middle classes(the likes of Cressida and the JSO mob)those who go out waving a Hamas flag,even though if they were ever to go to the middle-east they would be thrown off a tall building.Then there is the upper classes,royalty etc.

I thought it was people who drop their aitches, smoke while walking and can't hold a knife and fork properly. 

[ladybirder]

That's what I was taught Prudie.  I remember once telling a friend off for smoking whilst walking so she got in my car and continued smoking.  Arghhh!  🤬

[naomi24]

Believe it or not some people really are worth £164,000 - and more.  I have my doubts that it applies to Rachel Reeves though.

[Dukedelorca]

John Major said Britain was a CLASSLESS Society 😂😂

[davebro3]

There's too much said about class differences in the UK, it's just a continuum & in the USA (for example) it's defined by how wealthy you are - money pure & simple.

[curlyfries81]

What a stuttering buffoon. 

[rockyracoon]

'I thought it was people who drop their aitches, smoke while walking and can't hold a knife and fork properly. .

I think that applies more to common folk, not working class.
