Daniel Davies, trolling his own column at Comment is Free:

Working class people, as the trust report shows, have to put up with discrimination on the basis of ” their accent, their style, the food they eat, the clothes they wear, the social spaces they frequent, the postcode of their homes, possibly even their names”. They have to put up with people, including in the comments section of this blog, trying to draw a distinction between a mythical, idealised “decent working class” and actually existing “chavs and scum”, in order to rationalise this bigotry (there simply isn’t such a fine dividing line, just as there isn’t really a fine distinction between the “decent middle class” and a bunch of tax-evading snobs and bigots).

Then watch his commenters prove his points for him.
