The Chav Has Landed

Exclusivity is a tricky thing. It's nice to be one of a few, but then again you don't want to be the only ones.
As Abu Dhabi becomes more recognised around the world, and it appears more and more in Travel Agents windows in the UK, us 'Dhabians' are starting to consider how our city will feel in the future. Naturally, Dubai is where we look for a pretty good forecast.
And the dread sets in.
I wont dilly-dally, I hate Dubai. Well, hate is a strong word, but I don't spend more time than absolutely necessary there. It's overcrowded, traffic-jammed morning to night, disjointed and worst of all, it has a huge ego. I'm sure when Dubai is finished in 15 to 20 years, it will be a nice place to whizz around and go "oooh" and "ahhh" at the pretty buildings. But if current trends continue, along with the mental architecture will be the worst of infestations....the British Chav.
They started arriving a few years ago. They saw the cheap deals for unfinished, one-bedroom apartments facing someones' living room, and snapped them up.
They are tattooed, binge-drinking, thong wearing animals, whose only wish is to live exactly the life they used to lead in the UK. They disregard the local traditions and way of life and treat the Dubai bars and clubs as if they were on the Costa Del Slut.
Recently, a British Man and Woman were arrested for having sex on a beach in public view. This was after being warned once by the policemen. I don't know what sentence they will get. Just put them on a plane, that will be enough for me.
This is a Muslim country. This is not the UK.
If you want to live like you're on a council estate, go back there and do it.
But, nowadays, the Brits in Dubai are gathering a reputation for being louts, tarts and all-round scumbags.
Abu Dhabi needs to lock it's doors to these people. Anyone seen entering our airport with either union jack shorts, a Westlife CD or a beach towel with Tennant Extra written on it, should be turned away.
Don't let it happen! Dubai is overrun with them, but we can do better.
