As one who was born within the sound of the Bells of Bow I feel I must protest at this clichéd and politically incorrect depiction of us Cockneys.

Yer all a load of merchant bankers.
 

Is that rhyming slang for *wankers*? [so, merchants then?]  ;D

Born in South Australia in the ’50s to a father who liked his rhyming slang, I find the loss of it here, and elsewhere, to be a mournful thing.

Australian *yoof* increasingly obtain their *kulcha* from US sources, including the annoyingly-drawled Valley Girl accent. And we’ve pretty much lost our regional accents too.

Arrrrrrrgh!

Yup. I felt merchants rather than merchant bankers would be a little too abstract for the majority here.

Having been raised on a council estate by well spoken parents I can switch between BBC English and cockney or Sarf London English at will.

Sarf. Love it! Don’t know how the poms have managed to keep the cultural imperialism at bay, in the manner that we in Oz have conspicuously failed to do …

I once met an Australian who was appalled that the British have first and second class postage.

I kid not!

Well, that because we have no concept of class [cough].  Except for South Australia—we had no convict stain! ;)

Class is everywhere! But Britain has had more time to get it properly stratified.

And the nouveau riche are looked down on too. Check out Rose Porteous. Hancock’s daughter is now one of the richest sheilahs [couldn’t resist] in the world.

Interesting article.

And to think I'd assumed that Australia was essentially a classless society!As my wife says to assume makes an ass of u and me






It's an impossible concept. Anywhere. Life ain't like that now, last year nor the next. Guess we've all had time to get used to it. Strictly between the two of us, I think that's a pretty damned good thing: makes us all strive to better ourselves. However, still can't sing, however much I try to educate myself on the matter, however many musos I shoot.

Maybe that proves my point, at least to myself. Depressing, innit?

Some Australian rhyming slang.
