A Peter Wang
A Peter Wang is an outrageous, insane, obscene, unjustified, illicit, predatory rent increase imposed on peaceful (usually senior) residents living on very low or fixed incomes.
A Peter Wang is 'a wolf in sheep's clothing', presented as a necessary rent increase to bring the living standards up to reasonable levels that will enhance the quality of life for the residents. The rent increases are presented as caring, compassionate, almost loving gestures that are intended to 'soften up' the residents to accept the rent increase without resistance.
The reality of a Peter Wang is that it is predatory, about pure greed and generally destroys the lives of the (senior) residents.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
