Howmanheyman 26610 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 How did you answer? Mainly 1's.......Afraid you're more Gemmill than Essembee. Mainly 2's....... You're at home with ewerk and the rest of the working classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 14528 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I'm 2 & 1 seemingly; as mentioned on here before, my middle class object of ridicule is a rather natty man bag Better questions for this thread may be "who hates themselves for who their parents were and who desperately wants to holday in Tuscany and own a micro pig?"

ewerk 26187 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Going by ewerks protests over his carting i think he's more living amongst the peasants like who dared to ruin his day Clearly my attempts to raise her family's social standing through association with me aren't going to work.

Ayatollah Hermione 12736 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I wear Geordie Jumpers tbh. I'm definitely not middle class like but being on here is good practice for when I'm in my 30s and my high-ranking lawyer wife is invited to dinner parties. I know to talk about body fat, where to buy organic meat and the right ale to have with seafood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38565 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 One feels excluded from this poll since there is no Upper bracket, but I do enjoy interacting with the plebs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Where would you place the bar on earnings alone, to separate working and middle class? Range Number of taxpayers £4,745 to £6,000 1,440,000 £6,000 to £7,000 1,160,000 £7,000 to £8,000 1,590,000 £8,000 to £10,000 2,950,000 £10,000 to £12,000 2,760,000 £12,000 to £15,000 3,650,000 £15,000 to £20,000 4,950,000 £20,000 to £30,000 6,000,000 £30,000 to £50,000 4,090,000 £50,000 to £70,000 859,000 £70,000 to £100,000 410,000 £100,000 to £200,000 300,000 £200,000 to £500,000 89,000 £500,000 to £1 million 16,000 Over £1 million 6,000 If we're splitting it into three equally sized groups, then of the 30 million tax payers in the country, the bottom ten million earn £12,000 or less, the middle ten million earn up to £30,000 and the top ten million earn more than that. Even if you try to make a pyramid of pay, it's very difficult to say tou're working class if you earn more than £20k... Range Number of taxpayers £4,745 to £20,000 18,500,000 £20,000 to £50,000 10,090,000 £50,000 to £1000000 1,680,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26187 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I wouldn't think of those on £50k+ as upper class, it's only the few percent at the very top who I would consider as UC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan 0 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 If you've had to work hard for it then you're certainly not middle class. I started my employed life as working class and as my salary and level of reponsibility went up so I guess did my class rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched Live at the Apollo the other night and Reginald D Hunter was on claiming we don’t have large amounts of racism in this country as we are too busy marginalising ourselves by putting people in the classes. Just like that 2 Ronnie’s sketch. We even have some new ones lower working class and none working class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
