Sometimes being insulting comes naturally to people, for others it’s a skill they might learn themselves but is there a difference in being insensitive, insulting and just being plain stupid? I am talking about someone who is highly educated, comes from a family that’s richer than the Queen appears in the Sunday Times rich list, and yet is without an ounce of common sense. Step forward Rishi Sunak.
Rishi Sunak visited a construction site in Teesside on 16 July wearing a pair of £490 Prada loafers and it seemed he secured the vote of Tees Valley Mayor, Ben Houchen. Surprised?
Average salaries in the North East
The average annual salary In the North East is £27,971
It would take a local worker on an average daily salary of £76.63p (annual salary divided by 365 days), almost eight and a half days to earn enough to buy a pair of Sunak’s loafers and more after tax and national was deducted. This is a man who has admitted to not having any working-class friends and who was pictured struggling to put fuel into a car and knowing how to pay for it at a filling station.
Prada Man
It’s never been more crystal clear that our possible future Prime Minister is so rich and aloof from the country that he will forget the workers of this country and particularly those in the North East. Prada man will never think about the area again
But who is going to elect him to this high office, yes, it’s more of the same rich elitist entitled Tory members who put him, Johnson, and all their cronies into office in the first place?
If ever there was an illustration of the North-South divide, the gulf between the haves and have-nots, the widening gap between the rich and the poor it’s this image of Sunak on a construction site in Teesside with his £490 Prada Loafers
Let me finish with the lyrics from the Beatles song it’s about the only positive thought I have left!
“I’ll buy you a diamond ring my friend
If it makes you feel alright
I’ll get you anything my friend
If it makes you feel alright
‘Cause I don’t care too much for money
Money can’t buy me love…”
