It's what you make of yourself and do with your life that counts. Being proud of your background and heritage is one thing but surely it doesn't define you? Quote

I think where you grow up and how you spend your formative years has a huge impact on your outlook on life. Half the time there's more life, soul and humanity on a shameless estate. Quote

You're only working class if you work in industry, not flouncing around in theatres or hospitals Quote

It can shape the person you become, however we all have the ability to take different paths in life. Just seems a bit of a badge of honour to me. Don't understand it. Sometimes my mum will get on her high horse and prattle on about this sort of thing, politicians, rich people, blah blah fucking blah. Does my head in. Quote
Burndens Bogs Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) In days gone by the working class folk were seen as fairly low class. These days there are at least 3 "classes" below working class. Scrotes Smackrats The unfortunate homeless. Working lads can hold their heads even higher these days imo - much higher than those upper class tvvats who inherit family money,then do fcuk all with their lives.

Burndens Bogs Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) Add to that list Pikeys Asylum seekers Professional tea leaves Illegal immigrants. Anarchists - protest at anything types. Seriously though, there a loads of lads who were tagged "working class" and told they would "never amount to anything" by teachers, who through hard graft and a bit of nous have really done well for themselves and have fantastic lifestyles.There are millions of people in the UK who can only ever dream of being “working class” Edited January 17, 2020 by Burndens Bogs Quote
miamiwhite Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 One humongous statement by the South Yorkshire police chief re their guilt on grooming gangs. This is going to open one huge tin of worms and should lead to a government investigation, and rightfully so. How will the Labour party react to this ? Fucking cowardly wankers. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/police-chief-we-ignored-sex-abuse-of-children-hgrhc358v Quote

Surely this goes way beyond that. the last GE shows that the Labour Party is totally irrelevant, so who really gives a fuck what they do or don't think on the matter? Quote

Prime example here.....Sarah Champion says it for what it is......she is forced out of the Labour party. Naz Shah...we know what she said.......she gets promoted. Those are facts and highlight the voting bloc issue. Without that vote, Labour would be as successful as Keith Bill is right now. Fact. Quote
miamiwhite Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Good to see that beast who fled the UK to Pakistan after the grooming gang scandal has been brought back here and jailed for 19 years. Sad to see though, the SNP lot covered up a grooming gang scandal in Glasgow in 2016. Thankfully, sane people have brought it to light yesterday. Remind me again please, which poisoned dwarf wants more immigration into Scotland ? 🤔 Quote

Papers seem to be full of them these days, I wonder why 🤔 Quote
