Striding Out. Oxford

The handsome student striding out with all the confidence of an Oxford education and catching the eye of the tourists behind him.

Just leaving an exam by the looks of it. I can't tell what sort of gown he's wearing (I think there's three types), but a white carnation means a first examination. Looking cool in his dark glasses, mortar board in his left hand and I assume that's a bottle of champagne in his right. (He doesn't look the Prosecco type.)

 

As of October 2022, of the 57 prime ministers to date, 30 were educated at the University of Oxford (including 13 at Christ Church), compared to 14 at the University of Cambridge (including six at Trinity College).

So a future prime minister? He certainly has the air of ownership about him and knowledge of his place in the world.
