I expect that her real problem with these present day overlords is that they’re neither posh nor English.

If they had the kind of “proper” manners, soft discourse, cultivated look of detachment and posh dress sense that are taught at the “right” schools, they would be alright.

This is pure fiction. It sounds like an american projecting an accurate understanding of the NYT onto the guardian without having read it.

Since I’m an European, lived as an immigrant in the UK for over a decade and was a regular reader of The Guardian for most of that time and even for some time afterwards, your ad hominem missed the target by a huge distance.

Your post says a lot more about you given that you’ve jumped to such a conclusion about me from what you read and chose an ad hominem as “counter-argument” than it says about me.
