Berk is Cockney rhyming slang for an extremely rude name i.e. 
Berkshire Hunt.  Most people have forgotten the original meaning or 
they wouldn't use it so readily!  Git I think comes from misbegot, 
i.e. a bastard.  Again, the original meaning has vanished.  Where 
pillock comes from, I haven't a clue.  Should be glad to know though.
