Cockney Wanker is a character from Viz based on a stereotype of the male Cockney (someone from East London). He is a thief, conman and charlatan who speaks in impossible rhyming slang and spends his days drinking, selling stolen or unworkable goods to passers-by on the streets and being violent to his wife.
