  • suggest the formation of the new middle class makes the middle-class as a whole very diverse.
  • means that at each end of the spectrum of middle-class, people differ in lifestyle, occupation and attitudes. At one extreme end there is the “super rich elite model class“ whereas at the other end is a whole
    range of “low-level routine” occupations defined as middle-class.
  • These two separate sections of the middle class are
    compared in difference like a “dish of herrings and strawberries”
    Eg. ‘Miranda’ who is middle class but has average income and a 1 bedroom flat, compared with ‘Motherland’, who are still claimed as middle class, but are wealthy and living in central london
