I'd say that the preserves of the upper and middle classes are marmalade and foie gras. Lower classes tend to jam and potted dog. What's in your cupboard?

Ridgewalk Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Personally think that income and wealth isn’t the real arbiter of class. John Prescott ( remember him) did a documentary about class. Despite being deputy PM he still considered himself working class. He rubbed shoulders with the elites and one Lord he interviewed was incredulous he self identified as working class. I know folk who say they’re middle class but in my opinion they are anything but. 3 minutes ago, trastrick said: I'd say that the preserves of the upper and middle classes are marmalade and foie gras.

Victorian, colonial, slavish, prejudicial and possibly racist. Free yourselves, throw off those chains. Yes you CAN! And you know this how ?

Guest Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 As long as you are content with yourself and your life, it doesn't matter what class you are in unless you're a Mrs Bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the working class have moved on from jam n bread, to peanut butter on toast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that doesn't stop him being a tireless worker for the benefit of the working class and the underdog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
