WHO?
Once they were portrayed as salt of the earth, nowadays they expose their lives in TV documentaries. They love Ralph Lauren, Lacoste, Thomas Burberry and hate the Euro and any thing French. The broadsheets cast them as xenophobes, exhibitionists and mock their tastes and attitudes.
The Germans bombed their Grandparents and their Great Grandfathers went over the top at Flanders in the 1st London Infantry Division. Their Granddad’s talk about Dunkirk, D-day and the black market during the war. Their Dads talk of earners, the South/East divide, Millwall football club, and tell their boys that men don’t cry.
So WHO are the marginalised working class white youth?
