I consider myself a pretty egalitarian dude. That accent still makes me stand to attention internally. I hate it. (And I haven't had much exposure to it in real life, so I suspect it's because its baked into our media landscape).


The problem with egalitarianism is that it leads to chaos, as we're now seeing in the UK. The old system was better.


That accent’ is received pronunciation, I’m guessing?


The public school accent I'm thinking of is a notch plummier than RP.
