Is Cameron Too Posh To Be PM?

Now the cum stains have been wiped off the laptop, let gets down to business.

Five Live’s phone in this morning was in regards of the question that I put on the heading of this piece.  The argument being that Mr Cameron cannot appreciate the hard grind that someone from a working-class background has to go through on a day to day basis.  Or other statements like 'how can somebody like Cameron understand what its like to be a single mother'

There can be no doubt that whilst Cameron has come from an extremely privileged background that he has suffered tragedy in his own life – with the death of his severely disabled son, Ivan over a year ago. 

Perhaps such episodes in one’s life forces someone to question their own belief system. 

I know that going to the school that I did, with the wide-ranging spectrum of backgrounds that students came from made me more driven – in the way that in my eyes – the school catered more for those of a more privileged background – particularly in the last few years of my education where the influence of a small clique of parents of students from a particular part of Surrey became more and more pronounced and obvious swayed me towards my class warrior leanings.

Nevertheless, if we are to ask whether Cameron is too Posh, are we saying that you can someone could be too common to be PM?  For that would be preposterous to even suggest such nonsense.

Why is that this even being considered now?  Why was it not open to debate when Blair went for the Premiership, back in 1997.  For he went to Fettes which is Scotland’s equivalent to fucking Eton.  

And moving the case on from there - why does a privileged education seem to be seen as a hindrance by some?  Gandhi was educated at Oxbridge and then led the civil disobedience which ended the Raj and Partition in India and Pakistan. 

Chairman Brown's background is actually fairly humble in comparison, but still of higher standing to the average yokel;  He had parents that were from a upper-class/authoritarian background (dare I say elitist...) and was taught outside of mainstream classes in school.  Not very socialist, that seems to me...

In the end it should be down to the person who is able to show the electorate that they are the one who can show the best form of leadership that is needed in these difficult times.
