      Belief requires faith, if you don’t think the elite are corrupt you lack reason.

      Can someone explain the rise of the reform party then?
      Nigel Farage is not your working class mate and to believe he hates the „elites“ is essentially a bad joke.

      As in we know we would have been carted off in cuffs straight away if we had done what Mandleson has.

      I wouldn’t be riding a horse round a private estate just now either.

      Important to realise though that people have very different definitions of what an „elite“ is…

      Because they are.

      Also, they’re not “elite”. They’re economic parasites.

      The sole fact that both Epstain and Gasoline were allowed to „plead the 5th“ when asked about trump or others having sex with minors is VERY telling

      Of course they are! Which is why the working class/disenfranchised men are so susceptible to Right-wing ideologies because the elites on the right will occasionally deign to scatter some crumbs to foment civil unrest where as left wing elites only offer disdain.

      The UK is crying out for representation for the betterment of working class people and all the political elite can offer is the duplicitous Farage or the delusional Greens.

      It’s no longer a belief, we have seen what happened with how Boris acted and how they siphoned our taxes during Covid.

      It’s a return to the norm.

      For most of human history the difference between the lives of the rich (the aristocracy) and the poor was huge. The rich effectively or absolutely owned the poor.

      That system came under strain from the emerging middle and business classes during the industrial revolution, and partly collapsed after the Second World War for complex reasons.

      The gap between rich and poor narrowed. Better wages, workers rights, unions. The second half of the 20th century saw an increasing parity and universality of experience.

      I don’t know when the peak was – late 80s? – but it’s been in reverse for the last 30+ years. The gap between the average wage and the income of the ultra rich (the new aristocracy/oligarchy) has massively increased.

      We’re entering a new era where even our private info, debate and correspondence is controlled by the rich. A basic level of living (which is better than the nineteenth century admittedly) is provided for the working classes, but power and control has returned to where it always was.
