Interesting how some use the term middle class as an insult when that is what most of us are these days.

Why do more people not see that? The clothes, the look, the voice, the views, the interests, the utter lack of self-awareness, the sheer unvarnished twattiness....

And it's what people are depserate to be as well.
Imagine all the folk out here who "came from nothing and a council house" but now have plenty of cash, two cars, a villa and a pool....yet still berate the middle class.
Classic.

I'm not sure most of us are middle class these days. I know that many people would describe themselves as middle class, but by the old definition (ie your father's profession) I would say that most aren't.
A BMW and having your kids in private school does not make you middle class.

I haven't got a job, so can't be working class. What do you call people from the Middle Classes who are on the dole?
