Well, it's him arm-in-arm, shoulder-to-shoulder with the lumpen proletariat, innit? I mean, forget that he went to a school (Loretto) quite as posh as the one Tony Blair went to (Fettes). He wants to make a populist gesture and close the gap between himself and the people. So he attacks nomadic, miscegynating, unmarried, non-mortgage-paying, non-chattering class contemporary art fans and envisages a scenario in which they're ejected from art galleries by "the rest of us", an unholy alliance between the political elite and the masses. My hero!
