This article is about Prince William but he is represented in a negative way. Straight away the headline, 'Let Prince William save lives, - he's no use to us sat on his bum', gives out the impression that the Royal Family, especially Prince William do nothing worthwhile for the country but still maintain their power. This denotes that the only reason they are of upper class is because they were born into the Royal Family and have not gained their class through their personal values and skills. Throughout the article the Royal Family are penalised for the amount of money they have but they do not do anything for it. "We're actually making him scrounge off the state" Fleet Street Fox says in the article after people paid for him to train in the forces, yet he isn't making worthwhile use of his training. Fleet Street Fox mocks the Royal Family and makes remarks on how we could privatise the Royal Family and make money off them. This article shows Upper class to be not all it seems to be, it is proven to be snobby in this article and Fleet Street Fox is highly opposing the class system. The quote "If the Royals are to survive they have to prove their worth, just as the rest of us have to" shows the reader this. Fleet Street Fox believes that if we have to use our values and skills to get an income, then it doesn't matter if the Royal Family are of Upper Class, everyone should be treated equally and actually get money for their own doing.
