Mister M Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 The people that I generally speak to when I am out and about, mostly working class people I will add, can't stand the man. As I have said before he appeals to middle class youngsters who go to University not the working class Why, what's their problem with him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After spending two years expending every piece of ammo they have, this is what it's come down to: he's not very nice. :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_W Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Why, what's their problem with him? They don't like his brand of fluffy socialism, I know many working class people both young and old who no longer have much affinity with the Labour party, me included, and I was a union member for over 30 years.

At the last election 52% of middle-class professionals aged under 35 voted for the Labour party, whereas 70% of younger people in the DE social category voted Labour. So Labour is more popular with the working class youngsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've always been more of a NF/BNP person as evidenced from the following; It's a fact of life people can choose, the white kids became the minority at AGS and many white families moved away from the catchment areas of Sharrow, Abbeydale, Nether Edge and Carterknowle. I moved my family away from Sharrow in the mid 80s, best thing I ever did ! ---------- Post added 26-06-2017 at 19:00 ---------- Ha ha I'll bet your a reyt laugh, pop up to Woodseats some time I'll buy the drinks and introduce you to all the working class Corbyn haters, lot of Blades fans too I'm afraid I don't want to upset you but you have a Labour MP.
