Plastic Scouser
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plastic Scouser is a pejorative used to describe a person who either speaks with a Scouse accent but lives on the other side of the River Mersey to the city of Liverpool, or harbours a unfounded claim to be Scouse. Usually people in Birkenhead are referred to by this term, although it does apply to areas on the Eastern tip of the peninsula where most scouse accents are found, because of the close proximity with Liverpool.
A "Plastic Scouser" can also refer to someone very proud of, or quick to emphasise their "Scouse" heritage, despite no longer living in Liverpool.
