Ah, Harlow… a very strange place indeed. A small, poor town in Essex, geographically cut off from civilisation. This can very easily be seen in the faces of the genetically mutated cousins, brothers and sisters that inhabit the town centre (look carefully into their eyes!) – (..to locals – if you want to argue this point… swear to God that you’ve never had sex with one of your own family, ever… see…you know what I’m saying right?).
They even dress as twins in their Burberry outfits and gold chains. This social experiment should clearly be stopped. You cannot put travelling people in mass rows of terrace housing and call it a town. It is merely a massive static gypsy site with all of the problems that this brings. I know that this observation will provoke hostility, but that is very much in the nature of the people. Being completely unable to intelligently (or even logically) argue their point, they will swear, spit and punch you into submission if you so much as look at the Chavs in the wrong way or disagree with them.
I lived in Harlow for 12 months (moving from central Surrey) and actually got used to it for a while (even enjoyed it!!!!). I got used to eating in McDonald’s and seeing 13 year old mum’s throwing fucks and slaps into their children (for God’s sake don’t try to stop them – you’ll be smashed in the face with a big gold ring and stamped on). I even had my head shaved to blend in the the crowd. The accent was difficult to copy but you get the hang ov it in ve end dunnit, but no, but yer – shut up and vat you don’t no nuffink does yer?
If you look in the outer areas of this ‘town’ you can find some decent non-chav types.
How unfair! I have lived in Harlow all my life, enjoyed school & happily live with my partner in Harlow. Yes, HArlow does have the reputation of being a ‘new’ town like Basildon with plenty of young mums pushing their kids around the town, yes it has its not so desirable areas as every town does, & yes it has it ‘spongers’ who tae advantage of taxpayers paying for them to have a home & claim to be poor while they spend their (OUR) money on clothes, cars & nights out but that happens everywhere. Harlow offers lots of employment opportunities in & around the town, is being regenerated & has lots & lots of snobby residents of Bishops Stortford, Epping & the villages nearby happy to slag the town off while frequenting the town to use its facilities (sports centre, cinema, shops, bowling, town park, free firework display etc). That is what truely annoys me. These people happily slate the town & its residents whose coundil tax pays for these facilitites but will come into the area to shop & socialise. With its easy access to London Liverpool Street & countryside just a few minutes away I wish people would think before they criticise. Their are some lovely people in Harlow who do care about where they live & would apprecite it if the sort of people who think its helpful & funny to post such exampes as seen here of negativity on this page would keep their opinions to themselves.
what a load of fucking wank!! where the hell did you get everyone fucks there brothers and sisters err no that dirty and wrong, your fucked up. I feel strongly in saying that this actually is a load off SHIT! seriously. IM NOT A CHAV never wear burburry or joggers any sort of chavvy stuff. Yeah maybe its a bit of a shit whole but NOT this bad! cock.
This is rubbish… I have lived in Harlow almost all my life and I think it is great and I seem to have turned out all right .. there are lots of snobs around especially in Bishops Stortford who look down on us and I can’t see why… there are arses in any town. aha

Yeah I had the pleasure of getting lost in Harlow when doing my Theory test there. Apart from the fact I couldnt find a fucking crossing to safely cross the road that criss cross the place, with the endless round abouts, prime Nova thrashing territory I guess. I was thinking really this place does make Croydon look like Kensington. Lmao
