It absolutely is. James Madison:

Yeah, we do. www.nytimes.com/2022/12/22/d... Think you’re rapidly running out of straws here Bill! There’s nothing wrong with just admitting you said something without thinking!

Sorry, what are you suggesting is “still wrong”? It’s an objective, empirical fact that Britain’s elite draws disproportionately from the privately educated. Data from 2019 (which a few years ago obviously but not quite the 70s or 80s): www.theguardian.com/society/2019...
