Ideology and binary opposition:
Examples of binary opposition shown in the clip and ideologies:
The binary opposition that represents Levi Strauss' theory is especially blatant in this case, showing the power of high-social class and low-social class - where voices are only heard and automatically accepted to the higher-social class in which case this is Nigel Farage, as seen he is a politician, therefore his ideas would appeal more and bring more value, and are also enforced because of this, even though he may be biased or wrong. An extended ideology of this is, dominant to be more specific is also Russell Brand's past, he is known to have associations with drugs so his views on more serious topics, especially politics would maybe seem out of hand, even though it is genuinely his true and sober opinion. In addition to this could also be prejudgements from clothing, Russell wears a very casual and unfitting outfit in situations like discussing politics, whereas Nigel is in a very formal, tie and suit outfit, and just from this we can take one person more seriously than the other.
