It's a good job that the other two countries in the group have no history with such things, eh?

The scary thing is too many here don’t even see this PM for the scumbag he is
Some people relate to him, much as they did with Trump. They see his flaws as relatable.
It’s the working class people that genuinely believe he’s trying his best for the country and think he’s one of them that I find so baffling.
I'd bet a hell of a lot of money that he's more working class than Alexander de Pfeffel.That's because your'e not "working class" mate
Most Prime Ministers do. Bodger didn't, breaking with tradition.Not sure if he's allowed to vote for himself
Perhaps he didn't want to vote for an absolute ****er?
Working Class?
Despite being born in New York, Boris Johnson spent a large part of his childhood at his family's farm in Exmoor.
The 500 acre farm is located in Nethercote, near Winsford in West Somerset, and is still owned by the Johnson family.
In my experience not too many working class people were brought up on their own 500 acre estate.

The term "working class" is an inaccurate anachronism,
and I pity those who still use it in the 2nd decade
of the 21st century (use "everyman" , "man in the street" etc) .
Millions of people in the UK identify themselves as working class, of course it doesn't suit neo liberalism that likes to put forward the myth of equality while at the same time creating the most unequal societies since the 1930's.
You could also argue that Ruling Class is anachronistic despite the fact that it still exists and in fact has been strengthened in the last 40 years.
The set of "working class" *** people nowadays is so large (in fact near total)
as to render the very term pointless.
*** by the most accurate definition given by many
"of course it doesn't suit neo liberalism that likes to put forward the myth of equality
while at the same time creating the most unequal societies since the 1930's"
What that sentence has to do with the definition of "working class"
is currently beyond me (but please feel free to educate me) .
!You could also argue that Ruling Class is anachronistic despite the fact that it still exists

No argument at all : it is.
It cannot be denied that a lot of the set of people P that
enter national politics/office (MPs, civil servants etc) :
- are the children of those with a much better socio-economic
status than the "man in the street"
- tend to have a narrow collective set of academic attainment
but the vast majority of P, and their parents, are still "working class" *** .
Apart from the years he spent getting an education from the European School in Brussels.
That was because of his father working for the European Commission, of course.
He then extended his working class credentials by attending Eton and Oxford.
Did I mention that his grandfather was an Oxford-educated lawyer?
Spent 22 years as a member of the ECHR, including 9 as it's president, then got knighted.
Assisted with writing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights for the UN.
He's basically what Rees-Mogg pretends to be.
Let us know if any Spurs players score/assist any goals
(so we can watch highlights vids) , and say nothing
about any < standard > that add to the Physio watch list.

OG? Would be harsh.
Finished 2-0. Kim Young-gwon, their 32-year-old centre-half got the other one.
