Daniel was spot on about this anecdote being a vehicle to boast about his credentials. ‘I travel first class’ ‘ho ho ho! They are going to very place i’m a chair of’.

Lookie here Nissan… you’re a
bleeping toff. It’s no surprise how you’ve got ahead in life when your parents were rich and you had the best education. No one is stunned with how Etonian Boris Johnson climbed the greasy pole. It’s not so difficult - black, white or brown, to be half way up the rungs of the ladder when you have a superior education and money behind you. So lets stop pretending you’re disadvantaged, and trying to align yourself with a black man growing up on an estate in Brixton, because he would be facing adversity, as would his white counterpart, to reach the pinnacle of travelling first class or being chair of the Southbank centre, and if they did, THEY will have done it against all odds and that would be truly admirable. But not you. Get your head out of your backside!
Also Nissan Haribo, if I got onto First class wearing my rucksack and Tank Girl emblazoned denim jacked and Adidas Superstars, I, as a middle aged white woman still dressing like an 18 year old student, would attract the attention of snobs.
Stop attributing EVERYTHING to the colour of your skin. That’s if it even happened at all. And stop smacking your lips. It’s gross!
