So that's a clear majority of 57% considered themselves to be working class
as late as 2007
That doesn't say anything about their attitudes to the continuous
strikes in the 60s and 70s.
So how big do you think the majority was,in the 50's,60's,and 70's ?
Another question that will go unanswered, no doubt.

Do you think of yourself as working class he asked?
Oh no she replied, I don't work
