Not true. I recommend the writing of Theodore Dalrymple re "life at the bottom".
There will always be variation in individual intelligence, but the UK 'social welfare' system of "supporting" (keeping down) whole communities of unproductive people has created a dead zone of parasites. It is evil and ever more destructive of the larger community!
I don't think that the least intelligent of any group are gathering at the top rungs of society. The underachieving individuals discussed in this article will disproportionately be made up of the less intelligent, particularly in the white population who've been in English society for centuries.
The native born whites at the bottom in England have probably been near the bottom for a few centuries. This might be evidence of the role of genetics, and that, regrettably, those at the lower end of intelligence gradually settle at the lower end of societal success and remain there.

I read quite of bit of mid and early 20th century literature. By the thirties in GB there was a character standard creature that was disruptive, feckless, without moral standards or norms and with uncared for children.
