      Of course. I think it's harder to talk about because of stigma. My dad was a working class boy who even though passed the 11 plus didn't get to go to grammar school because his parents didn't value education and moved from Sheffield to Bradford and didn't correctly enroll him.

      He married a Cypriot whose parents were second generation American Cypriots from New York who moved back to Cyprus and my parents also moved to Cyprus. Thus my dad can be seen to have escaped the class hierarchy in the UK.

      I'm his daughter who has been living in the UK for 13 years and I'm sick of it all. I am hoping to move back to Cyprus soon, hopefully before 2021. All the time I've been here in the UK upper middle class men from pub schools have told me "you're Cypriot, that means no class".

      Not sure why so many public school wankers in my environment but I try to avoid them now. Although I have to say the ones in academia tend to be better behaved. 😂

      The thing I always notice is how devoid of British regional accents academia is.

      Yes! Depressing. They don't exist or get dropped. It's a sad fact. I only know one person who speaks MLE and some public school Scottish people who have basically a RP accent. Karl Friston has a Northern accent (check his "because" pronunciation) but I'm sure went to pub school.

      I'll have to get you to rate my accent at some point because it's a humungous mess.

      More specifically I grew up in Edinburgh but my mum has an aussie accent which has clearly rubbed off on me. I frequently get identified by random people as having an American accent which is entertaining as I was born there but lived there for about a year.

      People tell me I have a thick America accent, a VERY British accent, a Northern accent, and once or twice a Welsh accent!

          I also speak Greek however hard I try with a thick AF Cypriot accent. Even when I try not to use Cypriot Greek and try to speak Modern Greek... Mainlanders consider this either low class or nouveau riche. I get anti-Semitism and Islamophobia directed at me for it too.

          The Middle East is confusing even for our neighbors. 🤣
