if educated

I mean everyone was educated if they were in school after 1947 in the UK, which is where the idiom you use comes from.

Many British accents drop /h/ as accent is no longer a certain indicator of class, plus, code switching is a thing. I consider myself pretty well educated and will drop my aiches in most contexts except formal.

I'm not local to the UK, just educated. As everyone else, we too have a common dialect and many local variants.

I most often prefer to use common, for understanding. We're all common in some way or another after all. 🙂
