coming to you live on news now with our top story the british prime minister is blaming criminal aspirations for the night of riots in the u.k. but locals from the violence truck community say the government's budget policy is forcing use towards crime tougher austerity measures and spending cuts take bite further waves of juvenile delinquency could be approaching as more emmett reports from london. what ever resources the police need they will get whatever tactics the police feel they need to employ they will have legal backing to do so what we will do whatever is necessary to restore law and order. prime minister david cameron talked tough on wednesday branding pockets of society sick and pledging to reform them but seemingly unlike cameron people who live in the country's poorest communities saw the rest coming exacerbated by government policy i think that certain things that we had lacked simming used to be feelings the fact that. i

think it gave a place for children to go and cuts and stuff like that don't give opportunities for children you are less fortunate to go and enjoy stuff in holidays so they resort to pools or lack of it so that you know you can't blame you for being fed up in this feeling disenfranchised and feeling there's nothing for them because it doesn't seem to be anything to these days there's no jobs for them there's nothing for them to think the way for them to go but lying around on street corners the current sickness isn't easily cured it's links to years of liberal policies resulting in an underclass of young people who don't equate rights with responsibilities anti social behavior results in a court order seen by many as a badge of honor schooling in deprived areas is disrupted by bad behavior teachers no longer have recourse to punishment and can't count on support from parents to out the you mean. they me calm me down. i don't know what they mean but they need.

to take control now on. where to pitch i think we've got a lot of use still nothing to do. with schemes that same place to help them have something to do again x.-prize. sure it's true as you found one of those schemes being caught is this bus which goes round the housing estates in hackney providing much needed resources and encouragement to young people they used to be another bus to but now there's no money to pay starts so because of government cutbacks the team can only reach hof the youngsters they used to deem to be failing school because they haven't met the criteria of jump through the hoops of seven seas and go on to through that have not achieved anything in life and respirations change and as a result often they are criminal or maybe drugs or just becoming a bowman society youth unemployment in hackney east london runs it over thirty

percent parts of the bar are fairly affluent so it's reasonable to assume that figure rises substantially when it comes to these council estates it's become a culture where in some cases it's more profitable to stay at home and claim benefits than it is to go out and work for a living there are jobs there if i wanted to do them most jobs now. in pubs in shops and everywhere you go and europeans who are highly educated who actually speak the language and they're getting the jobs and our own people are not getting them very often because they're not interested in education i don't really want to work the problem that marginalised it's not a quick fix and as such it's all say no and then next and when they want this immediate situation does that console it'll be interesting to see what the government does to fix the sickness in this society if the answer is nothing you shouldn't be surprised to see violence flared again in you from all walks of life you. and it's not see. the british government says it's determined to get the

situation under control but that positions being challenged by some who say downing street is out of touch with reality based journalist afshin rattansi thinks number ten and the suburbs are worlds apart and that the gap be difficult to bridge this is a society completely in crisis and the motivations are so numerous but i suppose the central one of course is inequality and civic life it's a big institutions that are completely out of touch whether it be the media replete force or politicians themselves i think we all would realise in this country that 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 the idea of david cameron cutting the police force massive thirty cuts

the idea of shrinking the economy to grow it as a sort of mass religion together with a mass consumerist religion here. 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 but as to what happens next and i think that's the most interesting question in the eleven year old boy has appeared in the courts. this will be the way to understand what is going on the phrase mindless the phrase criminology shows of you've already have no idea how to stop what looks like a runaway train right now. more stories ahead for you this hour on r t including firing in anger we report on the latest developments of the korean crisis after a reported exchange of artillery rounds between the two. now there's always someone who seems to think the end is nigh but recently the number of such individuals publicly. paranoid is on the rise the likes of the fukushima nuclear

disaster in japan and the slumping global economy are among the reasons to blame and as our teens to see it took on the report some americans are already prepared for the worst. it's a typical house in a regular suburban town but here a family's preparing for the end of the world a german mouser and p. thirty eight from world war two a twelve gauge shotgun. a forty caliber pistol and an ar fifteen weapons and ammunition are key for carrying this out on the street for some reason and all hell broke out and it's you know and the world type situation he's persecute a certified and or rain structure and owner of two businesses stores food and supplies to help him survive no matter what disaster might hit breakdown of government is one thing a lot of people are preparing for now we're facing possible pay delays for a source of caribbean. i don't believe we're going to need any of this kind of

quitting for that but we're going to have a lot of americans that are kind of the thirty seven year old is among thousands of american preppers who would rather be ready than sorry spoke with the founder of the preppers network from inside his truck you know it's almost more economic. people every day lose their yard. have to rely on. gas masks bullet proof vests canned food tents and helmets filled basements like this one a proper survival bag is not a typical first aid kit it includes things like a parachute cord of body heat retaining space blanket a survival knife a meal ready to eat and bagged emergency drinking water according to proper is one must also be ready for chemical catastrophes or a large scale terrorist attack contaminate plan and on top of you you have a couple who love the. deal if you would slip into

a depression of course you're going to have mounting on rastan and i think what i'm really because the system architecture is is such with the banking system and the way that the sovereign countries are benefiting backstops for for the banking system i think that you're going to see war and arrests especially united states because the u.s. is an empire and it's it's the reserve currency of the world so when it when this when the system collapses it's going to be most felt in the u.s. because an empire sits on a nation state within which it resides a good giant parasite so when that crumbles it's the it's the biggest prize that is the final piece to go and i think it will be the first proven in that the system is architected so that it's going to self-destruct ever since we went off of bretton woods we were running deficits like the sixty's we had the guns and butter greater side of the johnson vietnam war they're going to be defacto gold standard in the fixture injury system of bretton woods and then of course there's new to the inevitable there's no word today which is boom bust boom bust and move to the point where the nation states take all the liability of the banking system and then

effectively put themselves in a position where they've sat on the grenade and the nation state is the the vessel that we've been which humanity has been able to sit guard certain human rights and if that goes it's effectively a new a feudal smart. well it's not all bad news in the financial world all markets and investors react to the lowering of the u.s. credit rating and europe's debt crisis the price of gold has reached an all time high for the first time in history the precious metal has stopped past its record price of one thousand eight hundred dollars and wants investors here gold as a safer bet amid rising worries about debt levels and the weak u.s. dollar you can watch our gold and business update to get the latest information on prices in. in under ten minutes time right here on r.t. . ethnic serbs in northern kosovo are living in fear of losing their land and property as situation in the region remains precarious while clashes broke out after kosovan police took control of two disputed border
