Did you even read the article?

"Mr Bridgen, MP for North West Leicestershire, told MailOnline: “It's
disappointing because all the figures now indicate that those most in need
of a leg up and most struggling in our education system are white boys
from deprived backgrounds."

Perhaps the Express needs a few more journalists, if it has to quote from
a rival. But I'd guess they had to search far an wide to get a quote from
any MP to support their views.

"Applicants are required to have already obtained a recognised journalism
qualification, as well as work experience in newspapers or radio."

So hardly still a deprived kid from a poor background.
