I think this view is still very attached to the pre-2008 world and it’s very tabloidy. The people you describe above would still fit into a comfortable living standard.
In this country, especially in our cities, there are a class of people now, which is growing very quickly, who don’t own these items, who can’t pay their rent either through work or benefits, who need food banks to survive, who live with disabilities. Poverty and homelessness are massively increasing and it’s not in the people you see with luxury items, it’s the people that you don’t see unless you work directly with them in the social or health sector. Just look at the homelessness statistics. People utilise stuff like luxury tv’s or mobile phones as a way of legitimacy for people’s suffering and the leeching that the landlords and ultra rich can do at the most vulnerable’s expense and it’s disgusting.
