we were talking about poitics today at work....it got a bit heated (i was not involved in this bit)
anyway, i tried to calm the blokes down and one told me to '**** off, your a **** conservative anyway'.
i asked him how so......he said 'cos you own your own house, and because you come from a council estate you should be ashamed to do so'.
he said that the hobbies i had were middleclass hobbies???

i was lost for words, and came away a bit shocked...
please please tell me that he is not right...........how can a bloke the retches at the sight of thatcher be a conservative.
and i hate the colour blue too.

Did he look like this Ton?

Ashamed to come from a 'council estate'. What a plank.

Shitting hell. That's some strange reasoning there....

Granted, you have some right-wing views Ton, but sounds like the bloke was a tad wound up...

Mountain biking is a Middle-Class hobby though. Not to say us Council-Estate scum can't try to better ourselves and give it a go though, eh?

You should have knocked shit out of him then he would have thought you were BNP

i think he was saying i should be ashamed to have bought a house, rather than rented one??

Sounds like he's a bit jealous, was hot headed and that was the only 'insult' he could come up with at the time

Just because you want to better yourself, doesn't mean you'll vote accordingly. I too came from a council estate and now would be viewed as middle class.

I remember the working class roots that I came from, but unlike some people didn't want to be permanently rooted in it.

Sounds jealous and there are a lot of them who don't realise they have the option to better themselves and what they have now.

The geezer was absolutely spot on ton. Your man obviously knows what's what, and he's figured out that you've got no class consciousness.

Why I bet you probably even read the Guardian..........with your poncey middle-class hobbies, and fancy non-council estate ways

Yeah, he's got you well sussed out mate.............he sounds like a right smart character to me

Owning your own house doesn't make you middle class. Wasn't that just one of Thatcher's vote winning tricks? I'm a home owner and therefore must be tory and therefore better than you, type thing?? Also catching the "now you've got a mortgage, you'll think twice before going on strike" crowd.
I don't think the class system really exist now anyway.

ignore

I'm sure ton does that anyway, note :

"( was not involved in this bit) anyway, i tried to calm the blokes down"

I bet ton doesn't even sit with the lads during tea breaks. He probably has a "coffee" with management. He's a counter manager or some other such high-falutin job.

He probably sings : "the working-class can kiss my arse, I've got a gaffer's job at last"

I've never read you expressing a view on here which was not "conservative with a small c". That tells me nothing about your voting habits though.

So all home owners are Tory? Fantastic! Are all renters Labour? You could have some fun ripping them apart but then you have to work with them; I think you must work with a different sort of person to me.

It sounds to me like it was the other lads what had all the fun - ripping ton apart.

He seems well gutted that his shameful betrayal has been exposed :

"i was lost for words, and came away a bit shocked"

....and quite right too, imo

Me have the bombadillo itch ? Nah mate ......bombadillo was never me.

He was a right pig-ignorant Tory racist...............think he got banned in the end.

I suppose there's a first for everything. In what has been a weird day, I shouldn't be surprised at the above.

What are you going to do? I mean, I'm not having her in the house any more. Plus with her being Cathlolic..

She's round her sister's (she's a cah she is). Their mum's going round there later, so it'll be like a scene out of Macbeth I expect...
