Ok, I see what you’re saying but my answer to your point is the question ( I know that sounds weird) Anyway, just how many classes are there? Isn’t a ‘lower middle class’ moving the goalposts? I like the point Boromart made but my opinion is this; your improved standing may mean your children could be middle class, but your belief system is still rooted in the working class mindset.See what you've described there is, to me, the established middle class.
There is a lower middle class, that I'd imagine a large proportion of the board sit in, and which I think Newy was arguing isn't really the middle class but we've been led to believe is.
Incidentally I think the only ‘class’ obsessed with this Issue is the working class. Now note- I said obsessed, I don’t mean in the literal sense, what I mean is that we are more conscious of it but by no
means the only class aware of it or involved in discussing it. There must be some sociologists on this board who could throw some light on it all?
