The document discusses various youth subcultures that emerged in Britain from the 1960s to the 1980s, including Mods, Punks, and Skinheads. Mods in the 1960s were influenced by Italian and French styles and often clashed with Rockers. Punks in the 1970s, like the Sex Pistols, fueled social unrest and promoted a DIY aesthetic. Skinheads emerged in the late 1960s and 1980s from punk/mod roots, though some embraced racism while others formed groups like SHARP to fight racism.

The who were idolised by the mods. Fred perry logo. Trips to the beach, mainly places like Brighton. Often in fights with Rockers. Stereotypically rode scooters. Smart suits, influenced by Italian and french styles. Reacting against beet nicks and teddy boys. They got know when they clashed with the Rockers, who prefered leather, and rock n roll. The disturbances began at Clacton and spread to Brighton and Hastings during the Bank Holiday weekends in 1964. The scale of the violence was often over-reported and sensationalised. It took a while for the straight press to work out what was going on. Some of them preferred to refer to both groups as Teddy Boys. Some of the original Mods wanted to distance themselves from the fighting and now preferred to call themselves Individualists or Stylists. Being a Mod was now less about being an individual and more about being part of a wider movement.
