Pikeys are just basically gypsies from london, their are many big pikey families such as the Johnsons, many take part in bare knuckle boxing. Items such as a watch may be referred to by a pikey as a kettle, reasons for this i am told to believe is because of pikeys excellent 'negotiation' skills, in other words, just ripping people off.
Gypsies in the movie Snatch are referred to as Pikeys, where as in Ireland, they would be referred to as Tinkers.

(not to be confused with 'wannabe pikeys' or 'clinger-on pikeys' who in live perfectly nice areas but just want to be cool).Pikeys are People who either live in council houses, or in areas where the houses now look like council houses because by them living there it now seems like they are(no offense if u liv in a council house, i know some perfectly nice peopl who liv in them). they also usually wear those parka coats with fur all round the hood to school because they think it makes them look hard. Out of school all pikeys wear lots of addidas,nike,schott,clothing etc. Most pikeys also smoke (in and out of school),also in school they also just randomly walk into people and say "u startin" and in some cases proceed to punch the person, but due to the state of the british school system nothing is done about this. another sign that someone is a pikey is if they just ramdomly spit at cars(because they relize they'll never own one), people(because they're subhuman and dont like things different to them and who have an IQ over 90)and they often spit on the ground for no reason. Pikeys also always jell their hair aand sometimes bleach it blonde. NOTE:u must be all or at least 60% of these things to be a pikey

Acronym: People Impersonating Kind Energetic Youths
The Government has been aware for some time now that there are a growing number of young travelling folk that have been committing crimes at random. These crimes are often aimed at the hard working people of the country and usually involve theft or fraud. Usually the perpetrator seems to be a nice, keen young person who seems totally trustworthy at first. However, the Government is also aware that they are a minority amongst their people and is reluctant to encourage any form of racism against the communities of the travelling folk.
With this sensitive issue in mind, it has been decided that the people need to be warned against this particular element within the travelling society without offending the community at large and not allowing any stigmatism to the travelling folk. So Police forces across the land have been told to look out for PIKEY’s and arrest them if they are in any doubt about their intentions. Public information films and poster campaigns will be launched to advise people how to recognise a PIKEY and what to do if they suspect there are any PIKEY’s in their area. There is even speculation that new laws will be made to enable property owners to protect their property “how they feel fit” if they catch PIKEY’s on their land.
