An out of touch and ignorant person, one who enjoys a position of power and privilege in society and employment but rarely listens to the opinions and thoughts of others who are not exactly the same as them, causing conflict, difficulty, embarrassment and strife in many matters for the people they are supposed to work for.

Mostly associated with political parties of dubious ethics and utter disregard for all members of society who are not wealthy white men, with the exception of female royalty.

Verb A specific act of voyeurism, either looking up or taking an image up the skirt worn by another person out of curiosity or to obtain sexual gratification. Also known as 'Upskirting'.

This is proposed in honor of British MP Sir Christopher Chope who blocked a bill in the UK Parliament that would have made the practice of 'Upskirting' a specific offence.

Synonym for "upskirt", the act of "upskirtng". The term entered common usage on Twitter after Sir Christopher Robert Chope OBE MP a British barrister and Conservative politician struck down a private members bill by shouting “Object” without sufficient time in the session remaining for a further proper vote.

The MP for Christchurch also used the same Commons session to delay another government-backed bill, which would have made it an offence to attack police dogs or horses, or prison officer dogs.

Both were among a series of private member’s bills being given their second reading in the Commons on Friday. If no MP had disagreed they would have passed without a vote and been given a date for their third reading.

Subsequent public scruitiny of the MP's voting record, unanimously negative character portrails across social media, as well as in the press were unflattering to say the least and only helped to cement the usage into common vernacular.
"I've just copped a Chope of some blond bint as she headed up the apples and pears!"

"We have had to expel another sixth-form student for Chopeing the PE teacher."
