Also known (usually disparagingly) as '
the great unwashed', '
hoi polloi', 'the
lumpenproletariat',
plebs,
proles, or, personified as a generalised individual: 'the man in the street', '
Joe Public' ('
Joe Blow' in the
USA apparently), and, quaintly, 'the man on the
Clapham omnibus'.
"Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me... I am what I am and I'm happy to be Joe Public." Neil Innes: Joe Public
