Where in West Dorset are chavs being encouraged?

FOUND this on tumblr with the comment “Dorset knows lol”

What I can’t work out, from looking at the wall,  is where this mock sign is supposed to be. It looks tantalisingly like West Bay, but could it be Lyme Regis? A strange question, I know, but I am genuinely curious…

    Does Chav stand for “Council House and Violent”;

    and those are nearly always scum. No aspirations, no job, living off the state, the girls have about eight kids each by a different father.

    No manners and always low lifes.

    So, who has chosen the word chav? Very interesting this is.
    I understand chav as the opposite of posh, from a German point of view.
    but maybe any English native speaker knows better?

    The original sign (in West Bay) was on Bridport Radio and later modified in photoshop and widely disseminated by me. You can find some real beauties from the world of local signage here Wip Woppers

    ‘Does Chav stand for “Council House and Violent”; and those are nearly always scum. No aspirations, no job, living off the state, the girls have about eight kids each by a different father.’

    ‘Ulrika Johnson is known as 4×4 as she has four children by four fathers and she is hardly a ‘CHAV’. One can speculate that this is even more unforgivable given that she, and others of her ilk, actually should know better whereas the disadvantaged or unintelligent at least have a legitimate excuse.

    One would venture that if every person who lived in social housing was unemployed there would be no-one to clean the streets or serve you at the checkout, having said that, those people very often own their houses – old social housing stock or otherwise. I know, I am one !

    The overwhelmingly majority of people from ‘Council’ estates are upstanding, decent, law abiding employed people. A small minority exist that are lesser than the majority and that is the image people like you run with.

    Astonishingly you write as if the ‘middle class’ doesn’t produce abject morons. As if no husband has had a romp with their nanny, ever been Jeffrey Archer, ever been pictured rolling on the grass in Cambridge with their knickers on display and vomiting on the grass, been pictured in the national press hanging from the union flag on the Cenotaph or smashing up Millbank!

    Let us remind ourselves how adept the so-called ‘middle class’ is at tax avoidance whilst importing cheap foreign labour en masse to force British workers into a job auction for the lowest wages with the longest hours, which they invariably lose. Let us also acknowledge how high earners have always traditionally saved up their universal child benefit to take to Harrods. The media reports that the ‘middle class’ is the biggest producer of home grown cannabis… and you mock the ‘Underclass’ that YOU have created. Whatever they may be at least they’re stupid enough to be transparent and not devious, pretentious, hypocritical pricks putting on a show.

    Asinine!
