I think your judgement of her is coloured by the fact that she is a Tory.
You've just said it yourself: her family ran a Newspaper business! Very privaleged in my book! It's not as though she was born into a family of shop workers. Compare that to the millions of Asian people living in squalor who are not fortunate to live and work in Britain.
