Cockney Reject (Paperback)

Jeff Turner was raised in Custom House in the East End of London, with seven siblings to share a three-bedroom council house.

The Rejects stood for being young, working class, and not taking anything from anyone, resulting in aggression and violence being the main staple at their shows.
