Under stress or drunk,the truth is more likely to come out.
It's a front that the ruling class care for us---period.
Mitchell on Monday apologized for the incident, in which - according to press reports - he told the officers "Best you learn your (expletive) place. You don't run this (expletive) government. You're (expletive) plebs."
The Metropolitan Police force has not officially confirmed the account, but says it has launched an investigation into how internal police information was leaked to the press.
Mitchell conceded that he had lost his temper at "the end of a long and extremely frustrating day."
"I didn't show the police the amount of respect I should have done," Mitchell said. But, he added: "I want to make it absolutely clear that I did not use the words that have been attributed to me." [yeah right]
Mitchell's reported word choice is a blow to attempts by Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservative-led administration to downplay its image as a privileged club.
Pleb - short for plebeian - comes from the Latin plebeius, the mass of ordinary citizens apart from the elite of upper-class patricians.
First recorded in the late 18th century, "it has always had quite strong pejorative overtones," said Denny Hilton of the Oxford English Dictionary. The dictionary notes that pleb is often used to mean "an unsophisticated or uncultured person."http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/british-cabinet-minister-under-fire-for-insulting-police-at-downing-street/2012/09/24/1535c528-0647-11e2-9eea-333857f6a7bd_story.html
So this is what they really think of us?
In a country with a well defined class system? Yes it probably is, nothing new there.
