Social Degeneration: Chavs

Definition of Chav: Burberry-wearing, bling-loving, Lacoste-tracksuited degenerate tossers. (If you're American, think a wigga obsessed with Burberry and fake tan)

It was only a few years ago when Chavs did not roam the earth and we were free to walk down dark back-alleys, hold our heads up high and not be intimidated by gangs of youths with nothing better to do than chain-smoke, vandalise and procreate in the streets before binge-drinking and passing out on the curb. Then when morning breaks, society will pick their disgusting forms out of the gutter and fix them up again for another night filled with violence and vices.

So it is definitely fair to say these low-lifes are the scum of the earth, and deserve to be forced to work camps to repay society for the damage caused by their random acts of violence and vandalism. However, what seems like an incredibly simple solution (lock them up and make pay back their debt to us) has been horribly dealt with by the government. So much so that the Chav population is actually rising.


But have no fear. Our saviour, David Cameron has reacted to protest at rising young offenders:


Young offenders should be shown "a lot more love" in an effort to encourage good behaviour, Conservative leader David Cameron has said.


He called for a more understanding approach as to why youths committed crimes in the first place. They must have counselling, education and training, he told the Youth Justice Board's annual convention in Cardiff.

The Tory leader suggested that children should receive "tough love" and, in turn, have "high standards" asked of them.

This was not the same as "sentimental, childish love which sees no wrong in anyone", he added.

Handing out anti-social behaviour orders (Asbos) to young people or putting them in custody was "reacting" to crime, not "reducing" it, Mr Cameron said, and many institutions had become "social dustbins".

Oh I see... We should go around loving and embracing the Chavs! It seems ridiculous to pour taxpayers money into more counselling and education for a bunch of degenerates who clearly do not appreciate our help, and would rather be drinking cheap cider and vomitting on the pavement. It'd be a bigger money-waster than the NHS Blackhole.

But then again, I'm just a kid, what would I know about issues like politics and stuff? Dave Cameron clearly understands these things better than I do because he's such a "hip" and "cool" Tory.

If you ask me, the problem would be easily solved if there was a revamp in the youth justice system. If Chavs really think a ASBO was like a knighthood then the only solution is to scrap a system that doesn't work and replace it with a system that does. What I suggest is that anyone found passed out wearing Burberry should be rounded up and sent to a Brat Camp/juvenile delinquency center to work until they show some sense and willing to contribute to society (instead of dropping out of school and living off the dole). And if that doesn't work, use them as an alternative fuel to burn.

But at the moment, the situation will only worsen before it gets any better. Hopefully there will be a day when people can walk down the street without fear of being mugged by a twerp in a hoodie at knife point or happy-slapped on a double-decker bus. Until then, I shall think twice about walking walking alone in the dark.

Labour camps for Chavs. 100% for it - help the British economy - for cheap (well free) labour come to the UK! As for David Cameron, the less said the better.

a cynical but truthful account of these people. drastic situtations require drastic measures --- send them to a real prison in the Far East and make them pay for their living and their damage.

I would disagree. I hate chavs as much as anyone but we are kidding ourselves if we think it's only now we have these kind of problems. Our society always leaves some people worse off. As long as there have been successful people there have been screw ups.

And why should we just lock them up and though away the key, that is not going to help anyone. We somehow see it being their own fault. If you were brought up on a run-down estate, never shown any love by your parents, in a cultur where to fit in you must slowly kill yourself and cause as much destruction. By doing that we would alienate them further and fuel the cycle.

And it isn't healthy the way people think of them almost as a different species. They are human to and their we own our good opportunities and quality of life to them. They deserve the same opportunities as everyone else.

I in know way agree with David Cameron. This is obviously another 'initiative' ignored by all youth domed to failure. But I do think he is heading in the right direction.

Simon, I can understand what you are saying but it's totally untrue about the conditions you describe.

I could easily have been a chav but I made a choice not to. Many people choose to be chavs and are from perfectly normal families.

My auld fatherilaw Frank said "should bring back the birch for the little bastards" sounds ok to me?

definitely. Although depriving them of their liquor would cause more pain than a good beating.
