I loved that work.

It certainly is New Labour's fault, but then there is a certain justice in the democratisation of higher education. Why should the rest of us pay to allow the top 2 or 3% to spend three years on a subsidised ego trip?

It was, if you'll pardon the phrase, a middle-class rip off.
Very droll.

That's the thing; you never really know if it's all about envy or is it simply about ruining things for everyone. And for money, of course.

In my experience, people who have worked their way up to privilege and wealth are even more sticklers for correct form, protocol and "aristocratic" behaviour than even royals.
