End of."Broadcaster Dan Wootton wrote in view of his 450,000 followers: "The queue jumping of the Elizabeth line by the elite is a disgrace."Why does every MP (and their four mates), not to mention Holly and Phil, think they're better than the rest of us?"Unlike Susanna Reid who lined up for seven hours with her mum.""I'd love to see one MP do the same," he added.Social media user TheonlyBird typed: "Absolutely zero shocks that Phil Schofield and Holly Willoughby jumped the queue."Beckham has many flaws but respect him for queuing for 12 hours when he could have easily wangled his way in."
