Most political types like to make out they were the underdog. Major literally born with fuck all, had a job making garden furniture, reports it as something he just did until he landed a gig at a bank and spent a decade doing all the exams.
If that been Ed Balls, his time working in a shed making garden gnomes and time unemployed with have been paraded as his working-class roots. A bit like the Mayor of London can't resist telling you his dad was a bus driver.
What about the circus time? Or was that just a story?
