Arthur Birling is a self-centred man intent on climbing the class ladder‚ even at the expense of his family and employees. He regularly uses his obsessive behaviour over status to invoke popularity or power within a particular crowd‚ which is evident in the very first scenes of the play when Birling says to Gerald: ‘It’s exactly the same port your father gets from him’‚ suggesting Mr Birling bought it in order to imitate a more prominent societal figure as well as to gain a rapport with Croft.
