What the bloody hell is a 'leading family'? Christ, it sounds like something from the 17th century. Is integrity, charity and all the things which make someone worthwhile really supposed to be in DNA? Isn't it time we all grew up?
Reminds me of when, sitting at my desk just a few feet from her office door, the then female Daily Mail features editor burst out shouting: 'Guy Ritchie! He's from a good family'. This only because his mother had remarried and his stepfather was 'a baronet' (I believe what with Black Friday and all you can get three for £10 of those on Amazon).
NB Guy's 'mockney' accent was utterly real. Nice middle class chap and all that beneath the bluster.
