2:03 pm
. at the point where we have to call in forces what we're seeing now is chaos and. criminality across the whole of london what we should do in my view is pull our troops back from these pointless wars in afghanistan in iraq. as money's spent on two wars in foreign lands parts of london birmingham liverpool and bristol i sensually ghettos partly because of high immigration but also because young people in these communities have no prospects they're bored and disaffected and as the cuts bite that's not going to improve a class youth worker told me four out of eight youth centers have closed since last year it's about investing in our communities when when you take away the money from the policing and you take away the money from the youth work. i mean i could never imagine such consequences to be honest this is you know you book a consequence of tuesday night saw sixteen thousand police officers on the streets
2:04 pm
of london a call. into the metropolitan police force is being stretched more than ever before and increasingly londoners are talking about taking matters into their own hands bringing with it to a certain under control is just the beginning of golding problem and it's not just about cleaning up it's about community and coming to terms with the back then even at the current numbers if violence is widespread enough the police seem unable to retain control the paling of insecurity and need community it is likely to remain profound time particularly if police keep disappearing from the bay your am at r.t. platinum london i didn't follow up see on twitter for the latest updates but what's happening in britain also the news analysis. of the u.k. crisis available twenty four seven two on our web site r t v dot com on our you tube channel it was great pictures there for you we can follow the timeline of the ride since the very first day and as
2:05 pm
a culture dramatic footage of britain on fire. so four people have now been confirmed dead as rising moves across the u.k. prime minister david cameron vowed to end the violence that was sparked after police shot a man in tottenham north london there's no work for journalists nor transit going on the line live from the other russian could see if these clashes were sparked a regionally by the death of magdeburg and what's the motivation now then as we head into a potential fifth night of rioting as it gets dark. i think first of all i have to
2:06 pm
give my condolences to the. family but the others who have been killed either by police or by rioters it's an awful situation in london at the moment the motivations well i think many revolutions have been sparked by. things that happen intimately connected with what eventually happens this is completely in crisis and the motivations are so numerous that i suppose the central one of course is inequality and an entire civic life so big institutions that are completely out of touch whether it be the media the police force or politicians themselves cameron seems to be doing everything he can do increase the likelihood of more writing here well ok we have politicians saying the rioters are mainly an educated jobless use lacking parental control so if that is the case who is to blame or what is to blame for their measures is it society or is it their parents i
2:07 pm
think there is an obsession with certainly the right in this country to demonize families i think we all should realize in this country david cameron who went through one of the most expensive schools in the country has no knowledge of the huge and insecurities and inequalities that raged right across this country london is a very multicultural city. there is a kind of tolerance for different cultures very little mixing between the classes that is central we've seen here has been wanton violence i mean there's no excuse for that no matter how you look at it is there i think one could argue that the bankers have completely looted this country and the idea of blaming the poor for the good but this isn't for people but this is not well of people raiding not well off people shops and burning out of people's flats. precisely the kind of thing
2:08 pm
that has happened here in the since the notting hill riots of course of the fifty's as happened in the 1980's we will be seeing many rides in knightsbridge over the next few days it happens in those poor areas but as to what happens next and i think that's the most interesting question the government now saying they want to use rubber bullets water cannon sheer criminality is what david cameron said and in the past few hours an eleven year old boy has appeared in the courts don't think this will be the way to understand what is going on the phrase mindless the phrase fear of criminality shows of youth origins here have no idea have to stop what looks like a runaway train right now let's focus in on tonight although it's pretty quiet at the moment to be loved and police did manage to keep the city come last night after sixteen thousand and ten thousand extra troops were put onto six thousand on the first night but what about the release of four your troops sorry police are slip of the tongue but how london's problems left the rest of the u.k.
2:09 pm
vulnerable now for instance we saw what sparked off in manchester last night. media plays a very old. agents there as very all the players in all of this you have a bizarre b.b.c. people talking about g agreement allergy and then of course they do announce that the police are all coming to the central center of london leaving other areas empty perhaps it's just incompetence like we see incompetence in the police force there is no doubt that the police whether it be institutional racism because the police from outside forces know little about the communities that they're serving in in central london the idea of this police force is equipped and we mustn't forget it was very commissioner and every commissioner of the bribery allegations resigned quite recently here in the country's largest police force here in london the idea that they are going to put a lid on this and of course last night there was less rioting in london what does that mean for next week next month and next year what about the fact that david
2:10 pm
cameron is giving police the a go at use watercolor plastic bullets bullets against riots is not going to be enough. i'm sure that will help a great deal if there is no doubt but david cameron who is spearheading campaigns to close youth centers as it was in the end as a report just before me and the idea of david cameron cutting the police force massive thirty cannot get here shrinking the economy to grow it as a sort of mass religion together with a mass consumerist religion here well for one thing to buy more and more expensive goods. the whole idea of this government having any understanding of trying to curb rioting in britain is a farce so let's go to your views journalist times the on out see tonight thank you . bucket olds reports of shelling from north korea as its southern neighbor returns fire off from the north falls into what is close to both countries dividing line. groups also we discover to be sort of their own

2:14 pm
in two thousand and sixteen so now reaction here five years ahead of that original projection now the balance sheets of these countries if anything would have only gotten worse which is why. the u.s. has lost the aaa rating when you have economies major economies where the deficits and out of control and you have this kind of projections on the line that means that these countries are usually going to print have a hold of the program so you the main risk and the new form of this financial crisis will probably be very high to hyperinflation in the rest and currencies in that means investment rise you need to look at are the areas particularly gold precious metal to something we have been advising for the past ten years we still are optimistic on that and then asian emerging market economies look a lot better than the rest own countries. well tell us what you think about the current market molly can by heading to our web site r.t. dot com today's poll asks if emerging economies can profit from the trouble in the
