I am American and I always have been interested in accents from everywhere (British, French, German). What I've found through listening is that hearing a working-class British accent sounds like a new york/new jersey accent, while there is no equivalent in a middle-class or upper-class British accent to any American accent. What does everyone think about this? Correct or not?
