The underclasses always spoke like that.

the average brit wasn't ever like that, just with stuff like television and the internet you've been exposed to the middle and working class that you would not have seen before unless you visited the country

>Does the accent really have any benefit outside of asesthetic?

>yardies

>Scottish
>English accent
