What’s classed as “chavvy” if you’re poor…

[Justanotherwinter]

But classy if you’re rich? I’ll start…

cocaine
floor beds for children
Speaking a second language
Day drinking
babysitters

Moving to another country for a better life !!!

I agree with the PPs who said plastic surgery and hunting animals.

Also having lots of kids.

And betting on horse/dog racing.

Chav is not the only offensive word that you do not have a problem with!

Holiday villages with on-site entertainment and pool.

CP- Nice respectable holiday
Butlins- Naff, tacky

Yes to moving to a different country for a better life too!!

Do u know how many rich people avoid paying tax🤣...and were talking all the way to Alan Sugar

That was my point

So true. Family at my children's (private) school - four kids, parents smoke weed daily and do coke/E regularly, mum frequently talking about how challenging she finds parenting and how depressed she is. Messy house, couple of dogs, kids quite 'spirited' and rude. They are UBER wealthy - think multi millions...

If you took away all the money and the big house and put them on an estate, SS would probably be all over them...

Just about everything, let's face it. It's not fair and it gets my back up. I'm from a MC background but live/work in more WC circles so I get a view from both sides and I challenge shitty comments when I hear them.

I've realised you can just list everything from Boris' life:

having lots of affairs

having a mistress who is the same age as your children

getting sacked for lying

getting sacked for lying again

getting sacked for lying again

having parties that break the law

wandering about wearing just shorts - fine on a yacht or in the south of France but chavvy if in a council estate

Women known to all their friends as Duchess.

@LoisWilkersonslastnerve is correct. It is basically everything.

Great thread.

Very clever 😂

Going to rehab - right of passage if you're wealthy and you end up with Elton on speed-dial. Something to be ashamed of, if you're wc or poor.

Also add multiple children to multiple women

Having several children by different partners, being sacked for dishonesty, not being able to hold down a job, serial cheater, being a freeloader who expects other people to pay for your accommodation and lifestyle, drinking too much and taking drugs, dodgy mates, workshy in general and using taxpayer money to go on holidays...

Which is actually a good summary of Boris Johnson.

I would not say it is 'classy' behaviour when he does it but it is definitely something that people on council estates would be crucified for while he got away with it most of his life.

Only if you’re an immigrant or the child of immigrants and your second language is English or is your family mother tongue.

Clarissa’s A* in Russian or Arabic is marvellous.

If English is the second language - people look down on immigrants

Drinking and driving - police turning a blind eye in certain “nice” areas

kids on quad bikes -

• on council waste ground chavvy
• on private estate - totally fine

Having an 'unusual' name.

Being poor. If you're living in a crumbling house with a leaking roof and no heating then it's vastly different if you can't afford to fix it because:

• you're in terrible rented housing and can barely afford to survive
• you spend all your dosh on boarding school fees for Myles and Annabel.

Eating with fingers

Drinking at lunchtime

Spending your days off day drinking getting beauty treatments and topping up your sun tan
Working as few hours as you can get away with

Not paying tax
