Class In Society (Newspapers)

There is often stories in the media that refer to class. The four classes are upper class which is only associated with royalty and gentry, middle class which is the likes of Doctors and lawyers, working class which is often associated with people who do labour and underclass which is people who are long-term unemployed and are sometimes career criminals.

People who work in places like Sports-direct will be working-class. This means their job wouldn't be very good, they're probably on low wages and poor hours. These people probably need their money quite a lot and the fact that their contracts have been breached means that they'll struggle to make a living. As it stands they won't be receiving a bonus which they claim to be entitled to. This doesn't really represent them as positive or negative. Whilst their poor job isn't great it's better than nothing and they show that they care by fighting for their money.
