A curious and sad story but perhaps more of a cathartic effort enabling the release of feelings about a woman with issues arising from mental or personality disorders than a useful analysis of the class system. It's ok to want to defend your mum.

I doubt there are many people in the UK from the historically exploited classes who are blind to the history, even those who retain respect for the titles and funny accents.

Oh come on. You certainly can’t divine that from the article, and wanting to “fit in” is a perfectly reasonable, if very sad, explanation for her actions.

Just a hypothesis obviously, but reasonable I think considering the extreme actions she took; certainly more reasonable than blaming the class system.
