>That sounds like article of faith. The GP is speaking about the UK - wasn't it always a very socially stratified society?
From WW1 until about 1975, no it was getting less stratified. The upper classes famously had to relinquish their country houses because they couldn't afford to maintain them and the middle classes grew.
It wasn't until neoliberalism took a foothold under Thatcher that social stratification started to grow again.
