Jaye Jang - skinheads and neo-Nazis are not the same as chavs here in the UK. (Edit: not having a go at you here just thought you might find this interesting.)

I'm not a huge fan of Wikipedia - but their description of what a chav is is surprisingly spot on:

The "Chav Look" is typified by cheap, often counterfeit clothing and accessories.

* Jewellery

Jewellery, particularly half-sovereign rings, large "hoop" earings, and heavy necklaces or chains are often worn, frequently in amounts that might be thought excessive. This jewellery tends to be poorly made, and composed of either low-carat gold or imitations such as coated brass or gilding metal.

* Sports Clothing

Sportsware such as trainers, hoodies, polo shirts, Tracksuits and baseball caps are common in British street fashion. In the chav sub-culture these are emphasised, with a number of distinct characteristics;

* Tracksuit bottoms are far more prevalent, and are tucked well into the socks
* Trainers, particularly white, tend to be preferred.
* While the face is rarely concealed, hoods, caps and scarves are often kept in a manner that might conceal the face if desired. Baseball Caps are therefore more common than in mainstream fashion.

* Brand awareness

Clothing will often be prominently marked with the signature-devices of high-end brands, although these are often counterfeit and not products of the implied brand. Notably "Burberry" is often copied on such clothing.

...Within the UK "chav" is often used to indicate a person(s) openly exhibiting many antisocial or irresponsible tendancies, particular examples include.

* Habitual, willing unemployment,
* Truancy (if of school age)
* Underage sexual activity, particularly if resulting in underage pregnancies,
* Promiscuity and children conceived in casual relationships,
* Assault or incitement to violence, including so called Happy slapping and co-ordinated intimidation.
* Theft,
* Criminal Vandalism,
* Profoundly hubristic behaviour including queue jumping, and enhanced sense of entitlement.
* Public Nuisance, in particular spitting, shouting or playing loud music on the street or on public transport.
* Hatred of the police and other authority figures
* Hatred of other subcultures, such as goths and emos.

So definitely filled with angst and hatred towards other groups of people, but not part of the skinhead/Neo-Nazi group.
