You really couldn't script this!

The way they look, the names, the lack of morality, the violence.

The Daily Mash couldn't have written this!

2 pissed up teenage girls having a fight over a dodgy boyfriend.

Been going on for years. Certainly it was happening over 30 years ago.

Fashion looks a little different and there were no daft enhanced pictures doing the rounds, but nothing else has really changed.

Hmmm, I can remember this kind of thing occasionally happening in pubs when I was younger (24/25 yrs ago) so it's not exactly a new thing.

One fight outside The Rat & Parrot in Harrow on a balmy summers evening between two girls got particularly fruity when one of them took her shoe off (with a large, chunky heel) and used it to club the other girl over the head with. There were literally tufts of hair being pulled out by both sides & a couple of their male friends who tried to intervene both got punched in the face.

Admittedly, back in the day I don't remember the makeup being quite so clown-like

few years back now, I was with a mate driving home after a day at Afan, about 6pm We needed fuel, and went into Port Talbot to find a filling station. As he filled the car, I watched as door of the pub on the other side of the road fling open wildly and two middle aged women came stumbling out. They then proceeded to have a one handed fist fight (they were careful not to spill too much of their pints) about who knows what. The crowd that built up around them eventually pulled them apart when one of them put their pint on the ground to better Have At It, something that was clearly a foul move.

shit like this has always gone on

Your value judgement is a far greater problem for Britain (or indeed anywhere else) than their makeup tbh.

Turns out 'Safari' is actually a proper name, named after her Mum's favourite browser...

I think its a sad state of affairs when the local rag feels the need to describe blow for blow a sad bitch fight between two kids, its gutter gossip and serves no-one to know every sad little detail.

If the gutter press stuck to this rubbish instead of getting into politics we'd be considerably less broken.

Could be worse.

The other girl's name is Barmaid Katie Frost.

It's not unusual, I've seen a fair few fights similar whilst working behind bars, years ago.

One memorable one was when one young "lady" used her stiletto shoe's heel as a stabbing weapon. Repeatedly stabbing the other "lady" in the head with it.

It wasn't me guv. I wouldn't be caught dead in Knutsford 😀

The only way that story could be any more 'Cheshire' is if the bloke involved was a footballer and she made her escape afterwards in this...

Yeah as already pointed out it’s not exactly new just different unusual names and fashions.

Every country has problems with society, you can either conclude they're all broken in some way, or probably more reasonably assume that if you group together millions of people, quite a few of them are going to do the odd thing that makes you Cringe a bit.

Canada, often seen as a North American Nirvana has a big Far Right Problem and their Indigenous population have a terrible time of things a lot of the time. Australia was there a generation ago and have made huge strides, but I couldn't say whether it was because they're good at it, or because economically they're doing very well and a comfortable life often leads to happier people.

France, where every Brit want's to retire to have a bit of their idyllic life has a terrible domestic abuse issue.

Spain has an unemployment rate just below 20% which is a great improvement over the 25% it had a few years ago.

The Swiss have a huge racism problem.

And that's just the countries most Brits assume are in some ways better than ours. I spent some time in Bavaria, very pretty, very reversed people, but go to a shady Bar on the outskirts of town and you'll see the same shit you see in any flat-roof Pub in the UK.

I feel sorry for my son. When I was courting his mum, she wasn't a major make up wearer so I knew exactly what she looked like. Hopefully he'll have the sense to see through the troweled on makeup and stupid selfie poses....

The selfies on that story show do not depict the actual likeness of the person pictured outside court!! I can see why the fella was trying his hand at few other women....

I'm with you on the last two.

I couldn't give a **** how they look or what they're called though.

Frost who lives with her mother in Knutsford was ordered to pay Miss Paton £50 compensation after she admitted common assault. She also admitted common assault on two police officers and was ordered to pay them a total of £100 damages.

£150 is no deterrent.

That if it's something blokes are prepared to pay for and keep, they'd be as well making themselves up to look like a sex doll?

Similar. Always had the problem none of us wanted to intervene since generally with blokes shove them apart and generally it calms down and if not some mild violence did the trick at least where i worked. Whereas with women its more likely to end up being painful.

I think its a sad state of affairs when the local rag feels the need to repeat the entire story three times over using the same words in slightly different orders, presumably in order to squeeze in as many photographs of the two "beauties" as possible whilst attempting to maintain the facade of it being a news article.

Our local paper does that on its website constantly it drives me mad:

This is the title of the story

[BULLET LIST]
- This is
- Title
- Story

[BODY COPY]
The story of the title is in the story because the title was the story. Of the title.

This is normal when presenting a conference paper or writing a report

2. Tell them.
3. Tell them what you have told them.

I remember growing up on the mean streets of Ripley in Derbyshire during the 80's that it was a rare treat to see the occasional bout of foxy street boxing during a night of underage drinking. We would gladly gather around and shout helpful guidance like 'rip her top off!". There were single mums too, and lads and lasses that liked to put it about abit.

As I have matured towards the direction of 50, my view on such events has changed vastly. As a parent I have tried to bring my kids up to understand such behaviour is not good, like most parents I think. I'm not really sure if society has declined quicker than I have got older.

A mate is the manager at a local hotel which hosts a lot of weddings. She was telling us that one recently ended in chaos as the bride and her new mother-in-law brought proceedings to a close by rolling around the dance floor, punching **** out of each other

A lot of folk here proving that an education isn't synonymous with not being a judgemental twunt, OP in particular.

The only broken part is where the story is being lapped up as a hilarious/outrageous insight into the lives of the untermensch. Your shit smells just the same and in 100 years time precious few of us will be remembered much less any shits given about us.

Personally I think it's comments and 'gasps of horror' shown by the OP that makes Britain crap. Is there really a need to say we are a broken nation because two bints have a scrap?

Back in the day when I was out on the town 3 or 4 nights a week it was a regular occurrence for men to fight, women to fight and sometimes each other.

Am sure it happened 50 years previous and 50 years before that.

Broken nope, annoying with stupid and pathetic strap lines, click bait and mobile phones - most definitely.
