UK Class War: James Blunt Vs Shadow Minister for Art

BBC




Quote:








Singer James Blunt has clashed with Labour politician Chris Bryant about diversity in the arts after the MP said the singer was part of a public school educated elite "dominating" culture.



The singer, who was educated at Harrow, said the politician was a narrow-minded "classist gimp" who was motivated by the "politics of jealousy".



Politicians, he said, should celebrate success wherever it came from.



I'm with James Blunt on this, although I can't bear his music. Oh, and it's a bit of fun that the shadow minister was privately educated at Cheltenham College, something he seems to have conveniently forgotten when lecturing the UK arts scene to be more representative of the people and culture of Britain. Coz, all our rock and pop musicians are from posh schools, innit.
