Class discrimination is all about us (in some ways it almost defines British society, a society riddled with often obscured or masked but naturalised class discrimination).

However, unlike other discriminations it is not a protected characteristic under our current legislation on discrimination.... perhaps its should be?

Mocking people for their class is discrimination – so why don’t we treat it as such?

‘Banter’ about where you’re from or how you speak is harder to define than racism or sexism, but it is damaging.
