Sarah Vine called protestors ‘elitist’ for meeting outside a Hilton hotel and the takedowns were first class
A million people marched through London to protest for a second EU referendum but Daily Mail columnist Sarah Vine thought she’d found the flaw in their plan that exposed them for the dreadful elitists that they are.
It started when the New European newspaper – as the name suggests, they’re quite keen on Europe – chose a familiar and easily visible London landmark for people to find them.

Alistair Campbell sounded keen.

Sarah Vine … well, Sarah Vine predictably less so. But not, perhaps, for entirely predictable reasons.
‘Find us outside the Hilton on park lane’. Elitist, much? https://t.co/l60PsaUXOL

Savage burn? Not entirely. Fortunately for her – and everyone else – these 13 people were around to put her right.

f*** me… here’s the Daily Mail’s Sarah Vine @westminsterwag – wife of Michael Gove – calling me elitist because of the bit of pavement our New European stand is on.
Presumably she thinks Park Lane should be reserved for her and her toff mates? https://t.co/MABeizZCwm— Matt Kelly (@mk1969) March 23, 2019

I've walked past Windsor Castle, it doesn't make me the Queen.

If they actually cared about the little people they’d meet in a rubbish dump or some kind of toilet

In Sarah Vine's world, building a hotel on Park Lane in Monopoly is probably elitist. But having her husband claim £331 for a Chinon armchair on parliamentary expenses – which he kept until he was ordered to pay it back – is perfectly normal. https://t.co/dlF6y2VagT

I know you probably hate this Sarah but we peasants are still allowed to walk on the pavements.

silly silly cow.
We were on the pavement, as it is the easiest place to congregate.
What a nasty vile piece of bitchery you are.
I am 68, a pensioner and #cancer sufferer, but determined to march for my grandchildren.

It's literally the name of the bus stop there. You know, buses. I guess only the elite ride buses? What world do you live in? https://t.co/NB1vkwTqeK
