Multiculturalism and a changing economy are gradually taking away the British class system, although features of the system remain.
Sociologists define social class as the grouping of people by occupations. Doctors and lawyers and university teachers are given more status than unskilled laborers. The different positions represent different levels of power, influence and money.
The British society is often considered to be divided into three main groups of classes—the Upper Class, the Middle Class, and the Lower or Working Class. This is known as the Class system.
The Upper Classes tend to consist of people with inherited wealth, and include, some of the oldest families, with many of them being titled aristocrats. The upper classes are defined by their title, but also by their education, and their pastimes which include the traditional sporting life involving hunting, shooting and fishing, as well as a great deal of horse riding for both leisure and a competitive pursuit.
The Middle Classes are the majority of the population of Britain today. They include industrialists, professionals, businesspeople and shop owners.
Working class people are mostly agricultural, mine and factory workers.
You can tell which class people belong to by the way they speak(accent), their clothes, their interests, the way that they educate their children, or even the type of food they eat.
