Yeah, to be proper working class it had to go on beer and fags.

Such stereotypes, sure you don't write for the spectator ;-)

obviously I am not as I have praised the policy in nearly every comment.

I am saying he needs to stop needlessly equating every policy to him being working class and making it sound like it was burden being so.

I am proud of my working class heritage and it never was something I needed to break from and never will, being working class didn't stop me achieving any goals, living in an capitalist society did, maybe a leader of a party that fundemently was built on oposing capitaism and bringing in a egalitarian classless society should focus on that.

Just read his speech. He didn't say a single word about his being working class - indeed, he sounded quite privileged (from a Kent village....) Plenty about making the arts available to working class kids.

So you're just saying stuff that isn't true. I'm not sure why.

Thank you Cush, and thank you for that warm reception. It’s a real pleasure to be with you today. And there are a lot of people to thank for making all of this possible. Bank of America and Bloomberg Philanthropies for their support for today’s event… But more importantly, for their...

I was commenting on his tweet not his speech

Fair enough, but he's appealing to the "Red Wall". Even St Paul said he tried to be "all things to all men". (As the Catholics learning music in school should know.)

tbf in the 70s wasn't nearly everyone in gorton in a factory of some kind.

My dad was a sandblaster and my mam worked at robbies making jam and christmas puds

Think Keith's dad was a toolmaker in his own business. Slightly dubious picture he is painting. Seems a bit obsessed with being something his family wasn't.

I mean compared to the toff twats in opposition being a bit posh from a middle class family is perfectly fine. He should probably leave it alone now the daft donk.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Seems he’s not doing too bad for a middle class, toolmakers son.
