      My route into journalism? Comp school, state sixth form college, writing for the uni paper while at Oxford, work experience at the Times while I stayed in a squat, journalism college, a year on a local newspaper in East End of London on £9k... Yep, privileged all the way. https://twitter.com/owenjones84/status/987229001151369216 …

      I'd say going to Oxford in what, the eighties, when only 10% or so of all kids even went to ANY university, is in itself quite privileged. I'd imagine you made a few 'contacts' there who came in handy somewhere down the line.

      I didn’t go to Oxford because I was privileged. I went to Oxford because I was clever.

      What’s immodest about explaining that simple fact? If I wasn’t from a privileged background & went to a comp but still got the grades to get into Oxford, why do YOU think I got in? Do tell. I remember when Labour was a party of aspiration...

          When did I suggest there was only one type of intelligence? My husband and two best friends all left their comp schools at 16. All three very clever. What was the point you thought you were making?

          Not immodest, just a simple boast; stating categorically that the only reason you got to Oxford (Kudos by the way) was because you are 'clever' is an extremely disingenuous & simplistic take on what can be a difficult & complicated social equation for some people.

          Oh god I hate hearing tories use the word ‘aspiration’! For them, aspiration means leaving others behind and moving out of your social class. What about aspiring to have a living wage, decent working conditions, a house you can afford, a good local school for your children, etc?

          Intelligence is not a simple fact. And as a matter of upbringing I was always taught not to blow my own trumpet. Did you parents not teach you that? It is a basic tenet of civilised behaviour, and as a Little Englander I would have thought that it would be second nature to you.

          Thankfully we are back to Labour being a party for workers. A party to support those who are vulnerable, a party who puts people before business, a party who aspires to ensure all citizens have access to health care and brilliant education rather than ‘me, me, me attitude’..🌹

          I know of people from North, where I live, attended Oxbridge from comprehensive and felt very uncomfortable there. Wrong accents, didn't fit in etc. Course, you'll say that was their fault.

          But *you were* from a relatively privileged background, just cos you went to a comp doesn't negate that. I can accept based on getting into Oxford you were quite smart, though I see no evidence of that nowadays.

          If you'd said you'd got good grades, that would have been modest. Saying you were clever is immodest. You should know the difference.
