You're misunderstanding to message, it's irrelevant whether Corbyns son works with McDonnell... He'll be aware (hopefully) that alongside his own merits he will have perhaps had an advantage in his field due to his fathers connections.

It's the awareness of that privilege that's highlighted in the vid, we see the young man scoffing at those climbing the ladder whilst he himself took the escalator.

Whether or not you had a hand up isn't really the issue, it's the attitude towards others when you are looking from a lofty secure position that's the talking point.
