I seriously doubt that there is that much discontent - perhaps most people are evaluating politicians based on their policies and actions when in power rather than being influenced by whether they are posh or not and what they got up to at university 25 years ago. [Edit: what a horrendously naive thing for me to say :-)]

Perhaps my own concern about modern MPs is they often lack "real world" experience before working in politics - but that's a criticism I could make of both sides of the political spectrum.

And on both sides of the Atlantic!
