Absolute twaddle.
Becoming a bit of a habit.
I know many Judges and barristers who are from so called working class backgrounds.
It's nothing to do with class, and everything to do with talent.
A bright young thing from a red brick university, and humble origins, will find it much easier to find pupilage in any reputable Chambers, than a chinless wonder with the right accent.
Cherie Blair's doing alright in the money stakes too, for a working class Scouser.
