Gary Neville joins the Labour Party

Do you know that? He's from a sport obsessed working class family, it's not like he was brought up in wealth and went to a private school or anything like that. All the people he grew up with, many of the people that his football job brings him into contact with and all his extended family are normal everyday people.
All I could find is that his Dad was a Director at Bury and his mam admin manager at a football club.
Working class? Could be that his old fella did some proper graft before that perhaps?
Both Nevilles played football straight from school.
Hardly a 'normal' upbringing or representative of the vast majority of us.... but like I said, neither are the majority of the other MPs.
I hated him as a footballer.... one of the biggest vocal whingers in a team of vocal whingers but warmed to him since he became a pundit. And unlike like some of them like Shearer and Jenas he's not frightened to say it like it is.
He could make a good MP.
