David and Victoria Beckham have raised questions about who is working class and what the term means now.
Despite being known as Posh Spice since about 1996, Victoria Beckham claimed in a recent documentary that she actually grew up working class. Her husband, former footballer David Beckham, scoffed on camera when she made the assertion in the Netflix documentary, titled Beckham. "What car did your father drive?" David asks. She doesn't answer the question and he presses further until she eventually concedes it was a Rolls-Royce.
Looking at a more philosophical definition, class can be defined by whether workers "control the means of production", as Marx said, referring to whether workers have direct control over their own work, the tools they use and the workplaces where they work.
