The last working-class people in the Labour party

A couple of people in the Hornsey and Wood Green Labour party have come up with a fascinating suggestion — a section of the party for working-class people. I don’t know their names, but let’s call them Bob and Hilda for the time being. Bob and Hilda, the last two working–class people alive in the Labour party. The two of them say that while middle-class party members are in general very nice, Bob and Hilda sometimes feel patronised and talked to as if they were children. Bob and Hilda have recommended ‘awareness–raising group workshops’ to address this problem. Hmm. This made me wonder if Bob and Hilda were themselves middle-class people disguised as working-class people, because I know of no working-class people who would use the phrase ‘awareness-raising group workshops’, still less voluntarily attend one.

Still, at least Bob and Hilda are presumably not black. If they were, they would even more fully experience the pleasure of being treated like children by middle-class lefties.
