Interesting. I assure you that when I go to the link you provided the page is dated 2010. Perhaps computer gremlins at my end.

So its not personal experience of the common people then, its from reading the SUN online!!

30 YEARS OF MORAL DECLINE so its been bad for thirty years?
I bet your parents lamented about the failed youth when you were a kid.
We become our parents and thats a fact. "It was better in the old days"

My chav story, and I must warn you that I live a sheltered life is the shock I had the other day seeing a 14 ish year old girl wearing a top which said on the front: "If you think I'm a b**** you should see my Mum!"
To me that summed chavs up nicely!!!
:o

Re: Chav Britain: Another reason to move to Canada
 

Very important question.

Are chavs the progenitors of Bogans (NZ, OZ) and White Trash (North America)? Or I wonder if there's a common ancester in 5CE or something?

THey should do an dna analysis

A country that still gives you free health care, will give you a pension in your old age. Gives you freedom and Democracy for all.

It may be free for those welfare spongers who have never paid taxes, but for the majority of hard working Brits who pay taxes, it certainly is not free.

I was a teenager in the 80s and it was getting bad then and by the 90s you couldn't go out in town without some drunken yob trying to take swing at you while his drunk and pregnant teenage girlfriend was shouting obscenities. It's only got worse. Now when I go back, there's McDonalds and Burger Kings and cheap hooch everywhere.

Re: Chav Britain: Another reason to move to Canada
 

Like this in my home town too 80's/90's but am not sure if it is better or worse since given how bad it was then & they have had major pushes on clean ups.
Am way past the Fri / Sat night round town culture now so maybe I just don't see it.

At the risk of opening up the Canadian / US equivalent, the 'people of walmart site'? doesn't seem to show it as a UK issue only;)

:lol:

so who are the Tom & Barbara of BE?

Re: Chav Britain: Another reason to move to Canada
 

Worryingly whilst trawling the online newspaper of the place I intend moving to:

maybe not a chav but ..........

Re: Chav Britain: Another reason to move to Canada
 

Surely only a real concern if you are a cat:sneaky::eek: There are nutters the world over.


Regarding the original Sun report of the kid with the cigarette...yes, OK, its stupid, but it wasnt lit, its just a picture!

Ive got pictures of at least one of my kids as a baby on the couch with the remote control and an empty beer bottle....obviously the kid didnt drink it, its just a funny picture to torment them with when they are teenagers.

Why the fuss? I'd be more concerned about the nanny mindset meddling in other peoples business than about the chavyness of it all.

Re: Chav Britain: Another reason to move to Canada
 

We pay a portion to NHS AND pensions but its still virtually free. yes we have chavs now, we have also had Skinheads/football hooligans/Rockers all of them the scourge of society. Life will fall apart because of these people according to the SUN/MAIL/MIRROR (Choose your rag)
If these papers are to believed its all BB and underage sex, jordan and the latest beckham pics.

Are you going to take your pension from this country then??? of course you are because you deserve it. Take a look at how people lose thier homes and go bankrupt in the US because they get cancer and cant pay hospital bills. or the homeless that freeze to death in Chicago and other places.

Yes the benefit system is messed up, but can you really blame people for milking a system thats useless??? Its at either end of the scale, Fat cats who take million pound bonuses whislt others struggle.
Britain has problems like every where else and I dont think we are any worse, if anything its a damn sight better.

Re: Chav Britain: Another reason to move to Canada
 

Virtually free? No the money comes from hard working british families who are being constantly squeezed so that chavs and benefits scroungers can buy fags, scratch cards and sky tv. It's this kind of disgraceful situation that led me leave the crap-hole that the UK has become.
