Hitchin, despite being a nice market town has quite a few chavs. They mostly live on the Westmill estate where all the social scum gets dumped. They might as well set up the social services office up there - except the chavs would steal it.
Even if we didn't have our own indigenous chavs we'd still be shafted as we're between Stevenage and Luton - two of the biggest chav breeding grounds in the South East.
It would be easy to eradicate all chavs from a particular town though. Refuse to sell the following to anyone wearing a tracksuit or a baseball cap.
1) Alcohol
2) Fags
3) Marker Pens
4) Spray paint
5) Car Parts
6) Top Up cards

I don't know why all this chav stuff has become so big recently. They have always been around and described by the (in my mind much more derogatory) term scally. Unfortunately the mainstream media seems to have jumped onto the chav issue in the last months, which is making them prouder and prouder of their chav status. The even more unfortunate issue is that no where is chav free, and due to the fact they feel they must breed at ever decreasing ages (the average age must be about 14 by now) they are quickly swamping the rest of the us in the sheer number of Burberry caps. Maybe we should all buy shares in Burberry, although I'm sure they can't afford official Burberry unless they go around yoinking our alloy wheels all day! I'm sure if you ran a regression on the subject you would find the most densely chav areas have the most fast food joints, least culture and especially nothing foreign or different in anyway.
Quite a few Nottingham people on the board I never really noticed! I tend to find the small area of Broadstreet between Broadway and Vans is generally chav free.

The Government should do that... The benefits system is currently a hugely wasteful resource, pretty much there to fund the chavs and their chav lifestyle.
There's a documentary on this week about underage teens having kids (inevitably chavs of course) and the people on it are just so unbelievably thick, I'd even hazard a guess that most of them don't even know what a G.C.S.E. is, never mind being able to spell it! 🙄
From the preview I was reading, one girl has had 3 kids, by 3 different fathers within the space of a few years.... unbelievable 😱 Another is some young chav, who decided she wanted a baby and went and had one... of course expecting the state to support her. 😡
I don't think it would be wise to buy shares in Burberry - these Chavs have dragged their brand image into the gutter!
I don't remember things being much better under Major, either.
Perhaps Chavs could be put to good use - low cost land mine-disposal workers!

Chav puke
That's precisely why I can't vote labour, labour is about working class people i.e. people who work. The only Class that don't work seem to be the Chav nation. I'd happily vote labour if they'd have the foresight to take a Miner's lamp with them while they ponce around our parliment with their head up their arses. If they'd give working people just a little respect we'd see the chav and it's low pain threshold evapourating into under funded thin air, we the Great British Public would see our shopping centers and market squares safely returned, and perhaps the Government would have more money for tax breaks with the view to affording us some luxury of using a shopping center for it's intended pupose. (which isn't sniffing Chav puke/urine)

i'm so glad i'm not in "Great" Britain any more.....and pending the result of next weeks election here in the States, I may not be here too much longer either! Of course Howard down under ain't too much better, but it's such a huge place it isn't hard to get away from all the politics, and he's been in office so long, i figure he can't be doing that bad a job.
and as far as scallies go, i'd not put chavs and scallies in the same boat.
last time i was back home in Bedford, i was disgusted at the town centre, full of ****** theme pubs, and full of attitude. going out on a weekend night to catch up with some good friends, i felt so uncomfortable, really bizarre. i even went to one of the clubs on a saturday night, and they wouldn't even let me in! ok so i was wearing jeans, but they probably cost more than most freakin' outfits the generic lads were wearing, never had any problems getting in to clubs in NYC 🙄
between the chavs and eastern european immigrants, they pretty much ruled the town. so so sad.

To continue the list; it ain't Leeds, and it sure as hell ain't Bradford either. Edinburgh's not great either, they're 'Neds' up there (but at least there's still far less than in West Yorkshire).

Definitely not Portsmouth...chav heaven here, there's even have a Burberry shop..although I'm sure no real chav has ever bought something from there!
We have our own share of problems but chavs aren't one of them. I don't think these Ali G lookalikes would last too long over here 😀.VincentVega said:

We're getting chavs in some Aussie cities now. Check Wollongong out, particularly at the beach at night.
Or go to the city shopping mall. There's nothing like a bunch of chavs snickering and yelling weird isht at you when you walk by them, just because you're not acting like a complete tw*t and they are.
You tell'em, Sikes!
And although some have disagreed with me in the past, I still say that Prince Harry would be a chav if he weren't born into the Royal family.

I emigrated a decade ago from London. Then we had 'Essex Girl'. Short skirts, so blue legs most of the year, and ancient Ford Capris with his 'n' her names (usually Darren and Tracey/Debby or some derivation) at the top of the windscreens. It seems, then, that like some sort of disease it's spread to the rest of the population. You lucky, lucky b*****ds. 😀

my hometown of ryde had what we called "chavs in training" or the 9-12 year old kids who look up to the more advanced chavs. they only speak very limited vocabulary (only about 5 different mumbles and 5 words) and want to be boy racers with stupid looking cars.
its sickening. argh!
in loughborough, there arent as many chavs, but you do see some occasionally pretending to be university students on the campus.
grrr!!!
