Other famous public schoolboys that have run this country since the war


Atlee

Blair


Actual working class PMs


Major



Female PMs


Thatcher


Our choice this election was for a bunch of upper class toffs or a bunch of Middle class Public Sector union member teachers if we want stereotypes


The class hatred stuff is even getting on my nerves now......It's actually a bit pathetic and shows that we as a country need to 'move on' as Jeremy Kyle might say

I don't think you could call Thatcher 'working class'


Her Dad owned two grocery shops - so he was an employer and investor, an absentee landlord, not a prole. A filthy capitalist opressing the downtrodden workers no less.


She went to a Girl's Grammar, to Somerville at Oxford, and was a trained barrister.


In fact, about as far from 'working class' as you can get without a title.


And Blair did a great job ;-)

First Comedienne to come out with a decent knob gag about a hung parliament should win a place in the cabinet.


Between the Wedgwood ashtray and the Royal Wedding commemorative plate.

I assure you that the good people a Royal Doulton did everything in their power to ensure that all points along the border of the plate are equidistant from its centre.


Its potential as a vessel for jus has never been tested. And alas it seems it will remain untested, being as it is now covered in a film of engrained dust originating from the early 1980s. Dust which no doubt* flaked off the skin of punk rock anarchist as they metamorphosed into smarmy yuppies over the earlier years of that bemulleted decade.



*Not to be confused with the Californian Ska band who found fame in the early 1990s because of their super hot singer.

Any Woman leader will instantly be compared with Thatcher such is the media and no party will want such a negative stereotype as it's figurehead when it is seeking election to government.

Brum, you are clearly not posh enough by a long way. What Dave actually said:


One feels able, on balance, to give a positive indication of how one is minded to respond when dealing with the enquiry as to whether or not one can, in fact, as it were, in the vernacular, ahem, "fix it".

    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.
    • These are the smokeless fuels you can burn on a open fireplace in Southwark: https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/fuels-php/england/ https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/environment/air-quality/reduce-air-pollution/reduce-smoke
    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
