Margaret Thatcher took elocution lessons just to be able to express all the awful things she wanted to do to our society in RP. Almost no one speaks it. It’s like the Atlantis of British accents. However, thanks to the BBC World Service, Hugh Grant romcoms, study-English CDs, and Monty Python, it has become the default accent deluded foreign types expect us to have.
