Those are all synonyms for there secondary meaning of posh as "fancy", I'd say the primary meaning is to describe a person of "higher social class", so a combination of rich, pretentious, not in touch with normal people, etc.

A fair translation of "posh twat", but a bit cumbersome.

The people I know refer to those people as “bougie” (boo-gee) as in bourgeoisie.
