Because they're ignorant.

fink lonnies rite, innit!!

it,s the common way of saying do ypu understand everything i have just said!
They are half wits
I believe it to be "street language" spoken by the badly educated,Gertrude,is it not.

Im welsh and live in Cardiff. In the valley area's "Innit" had been used for many a long year. Its not out of ignorance just a shortening of the words " Is'nt it?". It comes with the dialect as in." I went to the shop and it was crowded look now innit" Different areas have different ways of saying things but these "Streeter's" are just pure nitwits and ignorant to say the least...fink,fort,u is, everyfink...aarrgghhh.

Used to teach English to foreign students - had to do whole lesson on the permutations (isn't it?/doesn't he?/weren't they? etc..) of what in French is simply 'N'est pas?' or German 'Nicht wahr?' Keith Waterhouse once pointed out that, in addition to the somewhat ungrammatical 'Innit?' there is also the non-varying question tag 'Narminn?'
