Yes, that was a constant thing in the news, the whole Yardie thing. It's being replaced in the media now with the whole knife thing, especially it seems, at least in the part of London i'm from, amongst Bangladeshi kids - but which is now spreading into white gangs.
That said, I remember as a kid in the seventies gangs of white kids wandering around with Stanley knives. But that was mainly a football hooligan thing - which has traditionally been almost exclusively white.
