Pretty depressing that people live in that way in a developed country. Its like a whole different sub country in its own right.
Theres places like that all over the country though. Suppose it kind of makes a mockery of people on the dole live the high life. Cant think of a single person who would swap places.

Tbf i didnt even think it was that cheap. Shop around and you can get a can of lynx for a quid 
It was quite sad to see that young lassie getting in trouble for shoplifting, when asked why she did it, she was just copying her mates. She knew it was wrong and looked proper upset about it, but the sad thing is, she'll end up just like them, with a proper upbringing, she could turn out a decent person.
That lad who wouldnt go to school was the prick of all pricks and i wanted to put a brick through his disrespectful face but, yet again, he'll have grown up seeing people act like that and thought it was normal

People like you only encourage a decline in social mobility, then complain about it. Respect your ignorance, but if you're vocal about it you just make yourself sound like an idiot.

Some of them needed putting down tbh. One person who had no front teeth was riding a reebok mountain bike and had a track suit and hoodie on that looked about 20 years old said "I'm on curfew from 7am till 7pm cos I used to shoplift so I'm not allowed out till the shops shut, so I became a burgler, who ever said crime doesn't pay was lying... It does pay"
Said that to a bunch of kids on there street couch.
One kid hasn't been to school in 4 months. Instead sat at home helping his mates hide motorbikes and mopeds whilste they were running from police. Then when put in a car to go to school. Kicked off hit his mum called her a slag hid behind a gate then got in the car and went to school.
This is the youth of today .......

I'm not ignorant i know it goes on. I wont complain as that wont do anything. It's never going to change because of the nanny state the UK has got its self into and wont be able to get out of it. 99% of them children will have a son/daughter before they are 20. Live of the dole and get free everything.
Like the mum that was on it saying she wanted a better up bringing for her son. She needs to do something about other than winge and moan. Or just shouldn't of had kids in the first place.

incorrect.
what you should have said is:
this is the youth of today that haven't been brought up properly by their parents.
that's all it boils down to. kids seeing their parents laying about all day on benefits and popping out kids to get more benefit money.

This is very true. Seemed like one or 2 of the parents did seem to car but the kids couldn't give a fuck.

The mother of the little cunt who wouldnt goto school worked did she not?
Problem with her situation is that as a single mum she has little chance of commanding the respect of a off the rails teenage nobhead. Even if she gave him a crack he'd give her one back.
