In terms of social stability, Britain hasn’t changed from its original class system. Britain is known for having a strict class system that can be harder to climb if you don’t have the right resources. In the past, most people stayed in their class system or moved up. But in the most recent years, “Unfortunately, the relative proportions of people moving up or down a class now seems to be reversing. ‘More men and women are experiencing downward mobility and fewer of them experience upward mobility than before,’ says Erzsebet Bukodi at the University of Oxford” (Robson, 2016). With more access to education, and social media playing a huge part in how successful you are, this could be a social advantage. Which can eventually break the social mold and allow the next generation to move up in regards to class systems.
