George Osborne's standard first class move

• Osborne gets a pleb pass but travels first class. Plebs around the country feel robbed.

George Osborne travelling First class on a standard ticket

Chancellor, George Osborne, worth an estimated £4.6million, today bought a pleb ticket (standard class) but travelled first class.

Unfortunately for Osborne, the Virgin ticket master was one pleb who refused to bow down to the cantankerous demands from one in control of the country's budget, charging  the full ticket fare of £189.50.

We no longer live in the era of "off with their heads" and blind servitude. Serfs now have say in the 21st century too.

What on earth possessed George Osborne to think he could get away with such a cheap stunt? So bold was he in assumptions and delusion of non pleb-grandeur that he sent his assistant to promptly notify the ticket inspector of his actions as he could not be expected to travel in cattle class...with the congregation of plebs.

Is that a message to the rest of the country in this dire economy times; that perhaps we should try to cut corners to get certain benefits?

Big Society...with plebeians on the outside circle.
