scratter

Scratter is a British regional slang term — primarily Northern English — used as a derogatory label for someone perceived as a chav: typically someone associated with low-income culture, cheap branded clothing, antisocial behaviour, and a lack of refinement. Like 'chav' itself, the word is class-loaded and often used dismissively or as an insult. Its use is informal and its connotation is almost entirely negative. The term is part of a broader family of regional British slang words used to demean people along class lines.
