Telegraph
If there really is a class war going on, Labour has totally abandoned its
position as the voice of the workers. On
the day of the election, Emily Thornberry had to resign from the shadow
cabinet after posting a bizarre tweet of a house covered in St George’s flags
that many interpreted as a snobby comment about white van drivers. She may
well have been totally innocent of ill-meaning, but by resigning/being
sacked she helped add to the impression that Labour is now dominated by a
metropolitan elite that looks down its noses at ordinary people. It’s the
party of students and their professors, of NHS bureaucrats, welfare workers,
actors, Marxist intellectuals, teachers who don’t believe in teaching, and
male potters who get their kicks by dressing up as women and calling
themselves artists. In short, Labour is bourgeois."
