I thought the same about his "The Establishment:" this one's on my shelf, but haven't read it yet

Strangely enough, I found Chavs to be more repetitive than Establishment. Both cover very similar ground, though. In hindsight, I would just have read Chavs and the epilogue of Establishment. That would about cover it for me. Both taught me a heck of a lot about politics (something I've never been interested in). I would have benefitted from a proper grounding in politics (and sociology) when I was a teenager. It would have saved me from some errors of thought, like my selfish streak, which I probably got from the policies and times of the Thatcher government. Sorry - that was a bit of a brain-dump. Read Chavs if anything about what I just ... excreted resonates.
Oh, I will. Thanks for tsking the time to update me!
