I'm originally from Essex, which is right next to London (so I think I can talk about this, right?!) and the cockney talk IS lazy. Fortunately most people don't talk like that anymore, that kind of talk died out years ago. Probably because
people are taught proper English in schools. I expect the only experience you have of it is over-exaggerated TV shows
I rest my case.
