Many of the underclass's problems have their origins in ideas filtered down from the liberal intelligentsia. Uncritical cultural relativism is espoused by liberals who enjoy feeling broadminded. They "refrain from making a judgment" about the bad behaviors of others, allowing them to continue. They have taught the poor that human unhappiness comes from the artificial restraints that society places on satisfaction of appetite. Education is merely brainwashing in middle-class values.

"Of course, the tendency of liberal intellectuals... not to mean quite what they say, and to express themselves more to flaunt the magnanimity of their intentions than to propagate truth, is a general one."

Simpson era, authorities in some places and times were much more lax in prosecuting domestic battery. In the U.S., the laws changed so that victims will have charges pressed on their behalf by the police -- and I hope it is that way in the U.K. at this point too.
