Tax Avoidance Protesters - why are they all so middle class?


Recommended Posts

After watching the news, we have more and more protest groups such as UK Tax Uncut, and they all appear to have the same kinds of people in them.

 

Namely very posh and middle class. We have just seen a woman on newsnight saying "oy think its disgasting that boots are rather avoiding tax... what what"

 

We also seem to see some very well dressed student types looking like they are having a fun day out causing mayhem in legitimate businesses, smashing windows and swearing at the Shop Supervisor

 

Oddly, you never see any Jeremy Kyle Show types protesting about tax avoidance. On the marches with cans of stella and a staffy on a lead

 

So why have these middle class hoyty toyty suddenly found their voices? do they not realise that the working class had been completely shafted by New Labour while they were in office? higher taxes and lower wages have left many workers completely out of pocket.

 

Is it a case of "Oh Thatchers party is back in, lets go on the Rampage"

 

Apparently you are complaining about people protesting about tax avoidance simply because they are middle class. I don't get it.

 

Are only some classes allowed to protest?

 

The important question to ask is why aren't other classes protesting? Do you have any opinion on that?
