This is a topic near and dear to me & I appreciate your bringing it up.
'Low-skilled' is what some call others' work attempting justification for paying people pitiful wages for their skill, experience, time and labour. Some have little idea the value of work done all the time. They wouldn't last two days if so-called, 'low skilled' workers didn't do their work. I get angry about the lack of appreciation and proper compensation for people.
Michael Young's " Meritocracy " was a satire, too many years since I read it !

If you've got loadsamoney from your work you 'deserve' it because you got there on your own 'merit' , and obviously people with less money are worth less than you ...

aristo-crats, merito-crats ...

Kinda interesting timing, no?
Yaxley-Lennon as UKIP leader within a few years is my (depressing) take from it. Farage was one of the few remaining obstacles to him taking a major role.
