Are you pleased the 'posh boys' are gone from government? | LBC debate

Keir Starmer's first cabinet has been described as 'the most diverse on record for education background', contrasting the last Tory cabinet which was made up mostly of those coming from the public school circle.
Carol Vorderman hears from these callers on how they feel about Labour having the most state school-educated ministers in its cabinet.
1:27 - Caller Jawwad hits out at 'out of touch posh boys' in previous governments, and says 'if you're paying thousands of pounds to fill up your swimming pool, of course you don't care if energy bills rise.'
4:55 - Caller Carl disagrees with Jawwad and says it's more about 'advantage' rather than privilege', and then goes on to say that the 'North-South divide is a myth' in his books.
5:15 - Carol Vorderman and Carl have a back and forth, with Carl insisting that those in the North have 'superior income, cheaper housing, less children in classes, better NHS access, and cost of living is much cheaper'.
9:55 - Caller Lorraine, a former head teacher, tells Carol Vorderman: 'I am absolutely delighted the posh boys are out'.

    The youth are and have always been a potential pool of political engagement. Issue is that both intergenerational biases and media cynicism keeps them from shining and that goes double for working class youth. Kids are more politically engaged and informed than I was at their age but for some reason my own generation (millenials) and older all want to keep them as jaded and held down as we were before. Cycles of opression in all forms need to be broken, even the ones like this that don't get highlighted as often.

    While I don't agree with how he's trying to put the point across.... and a lot of the South is more affluent than most of the rest of the country, there are some areas that are amongst the most deprived in the country and get pooh-poohed simply because of geography. The new Govt has a lot to do to redress the past 14 years and build a trust and belief in Govt that has particularly been malignantly dismantled and destroyed at the breakneck speed of the last few years since the clown got his greedy grubby mitts on the keys to no10, this malignant behaviour unfortunately didn't follow him out of the door.

    Northerners have more disposable income than southerners? This is NOT TRUE. Costs might be lower, but so are salaries. In the North south "competition" mentioned by the 2nd caller, the north is losing. Unfair especially as it was the north that produced the wealth derived from industrialisation, but they are still suffering due to higher air pollution. Edinburgh is wealthy. It is not Northern England, it is Scotland.

Wealth which goes into the pockets of the ultra wealthy, the billionaires and the hedge funds and the shareholders of what should be publicly owned utilities, to be squirreled away in their offshore tax havens. Besides which, it is well known that the C of L is the biggest money laundering centre in the world.
