What is Middle England?

Article Abstract:

The readers of the Daily Mail, which has replaced The Mirror as the second-best selling newspaper in the UK, regard themselves as part of Middle England. They have aspirations, with the popularity of television programmes such as 'Changing Rooms' and 'Ready, Steady, Cook' reflecting their shared values. The readership of the Daily Mail clearly shows that Middle England is driven by female aspiration and consumer choice. However, there are some variations in style preferences.

'A prostitute is not a rapist.'

Article Abstract:

Recent media reports in the UK have implied that prostitutes are unfit to be mothers. Prostitutes themselves regard this view as hypocritical, particularly as many of their clients are fathers. Many prostitutes choose to have a baby with their partner, rather than becoming pregnant accidentally by a client, and have a great fear of losing their children through being declared an unfit mother. They also resent a connection being made between prostitution and crime.

All too easy to be seduced by the dangerous romanticism of Irishness

Article Abstract:

It is quite common for second-generation Irish people living in mainland Britain to have a distorted view of life in Ireland. Children of Irish parents can often feel unstable, especially if their parents plan to return to Ireland at some time. They often associate Ireland with the good things in life, and find mainland Britain a place of social alienation. They see themselves as a mixture of English and Irish, and find it hard to accept this duality.
