Harry I dont think it is the work issue because they dont have the skills needed to drive a broom.When the apprentice was abandond there was nobody to learn there trade and pass it on to others.Thats why now we have to import skilled labour. Thats the legacy that we have been left with.It has been said that you can assess the wealth of a town by its number of charity shops,

draw your own conclusions on that one.

If you watched the programme then you would know why some blame Thatcher. I don't blame her, all I was saying is that some blame her and why.

I'm surprised the chavs actually call themselves chavs. I thought calling them by that name was an insult (well, it was when I said it at school anyway <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />)...

Didn’t see the documentary so haven’t a clue what the program was about?

 

Doesn’t ‘chav’ mean a gypsy child anyway? An in ‘he’s a little chavvy’?

That guy that was in football factory featured in the programme and was saying that where he comes from calling a bloke a Chav is a bit of a put down. But Chavs are uneducated, they wouldn't know how to spell it let alone what it meant.

The football factory – sounds like an interesting production. It’s about time that filmmakers produced films highlighting large multi-national companies make huge profits by manufacturing their sports equipment in south-east Asia whilst paying there factory workers a pittance. About time that an undercover documentary showing how the likes of Nike produce their new footballs in Vietnam for less that £1 was screened, especially when players are paid so much nowadays.
