[Sussex] Which is the chaviest area of Sussex...

West Sussex by a mile

Really should be an alphabetical poll order, but I can see why you put Crawley first.

I should say though as Worthing born and bred I recoil on the odd occasion I go in to Worthing town centre now. It's definitely pretty awful these days.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Will somebody please think of the chavs of Mile Oak

And where's Fishersgate ?

Crawley by a country mile

Weirdly, I have this burning bucket-list desire to visit the Newhaven monument to legendary pastry chef on the Newhaven-Dieppe ferry Ho Chi Minh

Come to a Newhaven FC game as the ground is not far from the monument.
You could also visit the Eazy -E memorial bench

I voted for Hastings.
But Sidley, sadly not on the list, comes a close second.

Hove is filled with undesirables, loading up baskets of food in CO-OP and walking out.

Its focal point, George Street, is a cultural waste land.

The streets are a sea of Dry-Robe clad coffee shop Zombies pouting into their smartphones for their latest upload to the ‘gram.

Hove.

No vote from me as Southwick and Shoreham are missing from the list

Yup, that's even more head-mental than the Ho Chi Minh thing

 

[AmexRuislip]

I take it you know what Chav stands for

Well ?

Which area will win the accolade of chaviest area in Sussex ?
Which area has security tags on the meat in Lidl ? Which area has more Sharon's with two pushchairs, which area has the most teenagers in grey joggers and hoodies vaping and drinking Stella at the bus stops.

I kinda fecked up a little on the Poll
hitting return to early.

I meant to add, several others towns, but thinking about it, these three will do and would be in the top three anyway.

Crawley is far less of a shithole than most of you seem to think. Not much in the way of nice architecture, and a bit more culturally diverse than the rest of Sussex, but otherwise, not vastly different.

 

[Guinness Boy]

And where's Fishersgate ?

Between Portslade and Southwick

 

[surlyseagull]

Bognor?! Bognor must be in Hampshire. It cannot be part of Sussex... no way

I take it you are joking

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Ha, yeah.
Don't worry I have lived and worked in some fruity areas in my time,

I was raised in Newhaven.

 

[pure_white]

not Hove for sure, but they are introducing at Sainsburys where you have to scan a receipt to get out after youve passed through the tills - obviously suffering a lot of theft. I voted Crawley by the way

Hopefully this is research to find which communities need proper public investment. Newhaven was a lovely earthy port town for donkey's years. The ring road delivered a painfully slow demise to the town centre, not helped by out of area landlords who refused to offer shop rents that would make businesses viable. Its had housing piled upon it by developers who should have been made to make investment in accompanying facilities and every idea to regenerate it seems to come from some fly by night lunatic with crazy ideas about things like giant waterparks. The MP for Lewes opened a constiuency office in the town and put it, not in the town centre where it would be easily accessible, but next to the marina on a privately owned road that charges people for on street parking.

There is now some investment going in to redevelop the town centre. Presumably because the aforementioned MP is holding a very small majority. Hopefully it will be carefully planned to meet the needs of an aging population as well as all of the 'chavs.' (a disgusting term that sneers at people for their lack of wealth, education and opportunity).

I know that this was posted in jest, but classism seems to be one of the few discriminations that still seems to be socially acceptable. Successive governments have done very little to change anything for the poorest people. (I'll give Brown & Blair Surestart and EMA, both since starved/dismantled). I likened Brexit to a group of people on a cruise ship who were being called at for help by some others who were in the sea. We all continued to enjoy the liner's facilities whilst promising that we'd eventually get around to fishing them out. They came to understand that they were never getting the help and the lies of Brexit campaigners gave them the opportunity to make a hole in the side of the ship and ensure that everybody else ended up in the drink too.

Hove Actually

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Petworth - massive block of brutalist buildings in the middle of nowhere. Don't be fooled by the pond - its full of duck shit.

Saves people having to read the list.

There are two good reasons for not voting for Crawley:
1) You don't know what chaviest means
2) You've not been there
