Weak.
On the contrary, it will be very easy to answer.A tricky question on a pub quiz in 10 years time.
You do realise how desperate you appear about this?Being a self employed toolmaker isn’t the same as owning a business unless you count being a sole trader/contractor as being a business owner which no doubt you are. Owning a business with no assets other than a tool kit and possibly a van isn’t really comparable to owning a pharmacy. There is no record of a business owned by Starmer’s father on Companies House and trying to compare him to Sunak’s parents is just silly. You do realise that sole traders can work in factories and many do. Many sole traders earn significantly less than employed workers and there’s no evidence of any affluence in Starmer’s upbringing.
Why would I assume that all shop owners are millionaires? That’s just made up bollocks. I do know quite a few pharmacists and GPs and none are anything other than comfortably off. I also know several self employed tradesmen. Nearly all are what most people would describe as working class.You do realise how desperate you appear about this?
Presumably you think that all shop owners and pharmacists are millionaires, just like you thought that Sunak’s grandfather - the mid-ranking Tanzanian civil servant - was loaded when he turned up in the UK in the 60s? Strange.
You appear fundamentally annoyed by the fact that Sunak’s family have worked hard and just got on with it, and that they’ve done well for themselves. It appears to really bug you.
Does anyone think that Sunak had anything other than a middle class upbringing, and has he ever tried to describe himself as being anything other than middle class? I really don’t think he has. Personally I couldn’t give two shits about what someone’s parents did - it makes no odds to me - but clearly it does for yourself. Presumably that’s why Starmer hams up his working class credentials - even though his Dad had his own business and was a skilled worker - because it plays well with people like you.
HA HA...you're funny :)You do realise how desperate you appear about this?

That’s bollocks I’m afraid. Yet more desperation.Why would I assume that all shop owners are millionaires? That’s just made up bollocks. I do know quite a few pharmacists and GPs and none are anything other than comfortably off. I also know several self employed tradesmen. Nearly all are what most people would describe as working class.
The desperation is from you trying to convince people that Starmer had an equivalent middle class upbringing to Sunak. I think we all know why you’re so desperate to try and convince people of this. After all, there’s no shortage of Conservative Party researchers trying to do exactly the same thing.
It’s well documented that Sunak went to Winchester. So what’s the relevance here?HA HA...you're funny :)
Though to be fair, Winchester College really goes out of it's way to cater to your average middle class boy with it's cheap fees for day boarders
For 2023/24, the fees are as follows: The fee for Boarding pupils is £49,152 per annum (£16,384 per term).
The fee for Day pupils (Sixth Form Only) is £36,369 per annum (£12,123 per term).
Twat is the word that comes to mind

What’s the problem with working hard, earning decent money and wanting to give your children the best education?
