Abstract
Georges Orwell described the British society as "the most class-ridden society under the sun". Nevertheless, since Margaret Thatcher, political have wanted to create a classless society. Recently, David Cameron said: "I don't believe [the British society] is a class-ridden society. I think that's a load of rubbish". Thus, class seems to be a basic part of the British way of life because all political take care it into consideration.
We can consider three more important classes: the Upper, the Middle and the Lower (or working) classes. It is often easy to know from which class a person belongs to, just by hearing his accent, viewing his mannerisms or seeing his clothes. Despite a real will of the political to erase the notion of class, huge differences between people don't really seem to disappear
