Sadiq Khan often describes himself as having grown up working class’ but is now middle class.

Education secretary Bridget Phillipson grew up very working class, then went to Oxford .

She still considers herself working class even though a billionaire chum paid for her 40th birthday party.

But that just makes it all the more impressive that she has managed to keep hold of such a clear eyed understanding of working class people's hopes and dreams.

It is very much expected that tuition fees will now rise in line with the retail prices index.

If you’ve got a five-year-old child, by the time they make it to university they will have doubled.

You’ll have to start putting aside twice the amount I’m afraid. Life will be much simpler from now on..
