Sir John Major Slams Affluent Dominance Of UK Sir John Major brands the power held by the privately educated and affluent "shocking" in comments that have stung David Cameron.The Prime Minister has responded to Sir John Major's comments on the "truly shocking" collapse of social mobility by saying: "What counts is not where you come from but where you are going." In a speech to Tory party members, Sir John sharply criticised the dominance of the upper echelons of power in Britain by the privately educated and affluent middle class. Sir John, who left grammar school at 16 with three O-levels, called on the Eton-educated Prime Minister to do more to boost social mobility. The words were judged to be particularly stinging to David Cameron as he has faced claims he has surrounded himself with people from a similarly privileged family and educational background. More than half of the Cabinet are said to have been privately educated. The former prime minister told Conservative Party members in the south Norfolk constituency: "In every single sphere of British influence, the upper echelons of power in 2013 are held overwhelmingly by the privately educated or the affluent middle class. "To me, from my background, I find that truly shocking." Number 10 responded to the comments by saying that the Prime Minister had put his "aspiration nation" at the heart of his policies. The Prime Minister's spokesman said: "What counts is not where you come from but where you are going." He said the Government was focused on education and welfare reform to reassures "people around their breakfast tables" that their children could fulfil their talents and ambitions. Sky's Chief Political Correspondent Jon Craig said the comments were the latest in a series of "blasts" by Sir John against the Prime Minister and his Government. "His remarks will leave a nasty taste in the mouths of senior Tories because he is attacking them over their backgrounds," he said. Last month in a speech at a Parliamentary press gallery lunch Sir John said people were facing a winter choosing between "heating and eating", and that energy firms should pay a windfall on profits. Mr Cameron's spokesman said the Prime Minister spoke to Sir John regularly and met him from time to time. In his speech, reported by The Daily Telegraph, Sir John pinned the blame for a collapse in social mobility on Labour, which he said left a "Victorian divide between stagnation and aspiration". He said: "I remember enough of my past to be outraged on behalf of the people abandoned when social mobility is lost. "Our education system should help children out of the circumstances in which they were born, not lock them into the circumstances in which they were born. "We need them to fly as high as their luck, their ability and their sheer hard graft can actually take them. And it isn't going to happen magically." Kevin Brennan MP, Labour's Shadow Schools Minister, said: "John Major is telling people what they already knew: David Cameron's is an out-of-touch government that is staggeringly complacent on the one million young people who are unemployed. The next generation are being locked out of opportunity, blighted by Cameron's cost of living crisis."- published: 11 Nov 2013

PMQs: Cameron v Miliband on John Major and Energy Prices 23/10/2013
23/10/2013 Ed Miliband quoted a reply from the prime minister at last week's PMQs about Labour's plan for an energy price freeze which David Cameron said was the policy of someone living in a "Marxist universe". But the Labour leader said the "red peril has claimed Sir John Major" after the former prime minister spoke out about energy bills on Tuesday. The pair clashed on energy policies, green levies, and what to do about bills during PMQs, where David Cameron called Sir John a "good man", but claimed the Labour leader was acting like a "conman".- published: 23 Oct 2013
