Putting on a fake accent, and being a pompous little bitch certainly ain't my idea of bettering yourself lol.

I am afraid it is - unless working class person wants to be a pop star or sports person the only other route to high profile career is to ditch accent and reinvent yourself. We will never havw PM with a broad estury /Essex/ Brum accent (only regional accent allowed is Scottish).
There is something reassuring about people with nice upper class accents. It has gravitas that Brum Welsh Geordie Essex and Scouse accents simple dont. People will never vote for a PM with Scouse accent no matter intellect policies and nanifesto.
Posh accents are the only type of accent everyone can understand.
