Instead of being ruled by a coterie of Old Etonians, let’s imagine that among the people making the decisions in this country, would be hard-pressed single parents who understood what it is like to be poor, or disadvantaged. People like Angela Rayner, for example.

Thus far, she has not been deemed to have contravened any tax or parliamentary rules, and I very much doubt she’ll be found guilty of anything.
But her public persona is not that of a heroic woman balancing all these (easily relatable) issues; more of mouthy, tax-dodging hypocrite.

In her maiden speech to Parliament in 2015, Rayner told the House of Commons that she “will always tell it how it is – and I’ll do it in my own little northern way”.
“Anonymous hard-right accounts attacking my accent… saying l am thick,” is how she put it.
It may be sexism or classism, or indeed the metropolitan bias of our media, but you cannot argue that Angela Rayner gets a rough ride in the way that a public school-educated person from the Home Counties would not.
But, then again, I might be a chippy northerner, too.
