Well mentioned. The Thames flotilla battle summed it up perfectly. Nigel Farage led a group of fishermen up the Thames in boats to protest EU fishing quotas that destroy their livelihoods. Bob Geldolf and a bunch of students turn up on a speedboat, shout abuse and raise two fingers at the fishermen. You could taste the contempt for working people.

Exactly! I am sick of being lectured about 'hardships' and 'tolerance' by fucking multi millionaires living in their literal gilded, gated palaces.

Me too. I have nothing against rich people who have earned their fortunes through hard work or their parents' hard work. But I resent it when they act like the rest of us a dumb, ill-informed yokels who hate immigrants because we're racist.
