I agree with this. There is something quite colonial about her summary of life in Kent. They arrived, took advantage of the “cheaper” houses, got their privileged children into the grammar schools (no doubt therefore taking a place from a child who’d lived there for 15 years but not been in a French speaking nursery, or whatever, at age 1), and then set up something that sounds a lot like a gated community with people every bit as white and middle class as them. Zero integration. They’d all rather be living in Barnes, but seems like Red magazine pay packets don’t quite stretch to that.
