shell and the british government are being accused of trying to play down the scale of a major oil spill off the coast of scotland more than two hundred tonnes of oil is thought to have spewed into the north sea following a leak believed to be the country's worst in over. the summertime in england recently with riots and looting flaring up next week try to figure out why and how it will. i'm joined by francis gilbert teacher and author he's written a book called beyond the nation and is a frequent commentator on youth culture frances thanks for speaking to r.t. so what was your reaction to the riots and were you surprised i suppose i was shocked when i you know i heard it from happening to me near where i live but i was not surprised because i think a lot of commentators have said that this sort of thing. has been waiting to
6:32 am
happen for a number of years now and why is that and i think it's complicated i mean i suppose you could isolate a few factors firstly we have a kind of run of disaffected socially disadvantaged young people in our urban areas. and maybe a couple of decades and they have become more and more organized become. divisions in society. and they become less fright of the consequences of misbehavior because actually they've been getting away with this. for many many years now and so i think more we seeing this sort of in your culture. the kind of explosion of on the streets and the your crucially in my book
6:33 am
i define as a theatrical creature someone who. believes that he wants the street to become their theater and the whole point of it is the sort of thing that we've seen on t.v. where they're actually parading themselves and their power and smashing things up publicly and this is very important in britain for you know a couple of decades so why now why did it suddenly overflowed i think. what's happened is you seen a group a small group of very disaffected alienated people who are on the internet a lot and they are becoming very. denies saying and getting people together in various kind of parts of the country and so the social media played a big role in group meeting if the politicians have been quick to dismiss the rights to see criminality but surely they need to take responsibility to isn't this
6:34 am
a problem to the society they run i mean i would agree that i mean i think it is quite complex i think that yes there are some very disaffected alienated in quite very clever people out there from the under classes who are incredibly bitter about the lack of opportunity i mean credibly ambitious as well i teach you know and i have talked to disaffected a united teenagers who are very clever and they realize that you know actually realistically the opportunities there for them are very limited for example and what they're facing so they go to university they're faced with mountains of doubt they want to get a job in journalism or law they don't have the parental support the richer people have they don't have the sort of networks that david cameron and his have so was to blame for all of that and thirty forty years ago the vast majority of working class people working factories weren't by now mechanization technology
6:35 am
means what modern western societies are dealing with are. people who are not actually needed for work and you have to generate some sort of enterprise culture and that is a real problem for us and snip we've got a lot of people on welfare. how do you deal with that obviously you need to. need to kind of think about very seriously about how how you keep those people right what about the education system is it failing mr. i actually argued very forcefully not know that said education isn't everything as i've been hinting or you know it once you've got rather highly educated group of people who know that they're not there haven't got huge prospects then you've got cuts even more of a problem than if they were totally on it you kate it's we also know we have a small minority of very distracted illiterate koreans so the education
6:36 am
system has done well and i think it's not mix it's a sort of toxic mix of the right working class kids and. a group of people a community play perhaps raising educated or not though surely these kids should know that violence is not the answer people brought up in a context where they have a kind of conscience perhaps you wouldn't be doing this with day and it is allowed to be done systems i just don't see the law education system can really help content with it if you are dealing with a group of people particularly from kind of fractured families in a growing up in quite a brutalized atmosphere it is a real problem this is a one off or is the pleasurable to come and the underlying rumbling kind of disaffection of your brewery that kind of affects all of us in the day to day level i don't think that's going to go away you know fit for many years unless we kind of
6:37 am
reorientate the prospects for a lot of these young people so you could to spread to europe the thing i don't know i would personally not i mean i say this in my your nation book. you know french italian cultures so-called have a different kind of attitude to and social behavior and it doesn't seem to be so much of a poor. because of the way for example a treat things like alcohol which again we haven't mentioned alcohol in britain plays a huge role in the preparation of and social behavior and causes no mass kind of problems throughout the u.k. every weekend what is it about british society them the with the means your flourishing is and has always been the case i mean i argue in the book it has to mean our mascot in britain used to be john ball who was this drunken fierce sort of
6:38 am
yeoman type character he would bash the foreigners abroad and that was a cruising maging for corona you know and that's that was what two hundred fifty years ago and even people like david cameron were members of the thing called bowling the society which actually actively encourages young men to get drunk and trashed property. you know the deputy prime minister has called for years ago punch someone in the mouth or rein in posts and actually was celebrated for it you know we have a kind of as a culture an attitude to violence we would join in whatever was going on you know we kind of quite an aggressive adversarial culture and not. really influences things as well it permeates into every level of our society it is something that can be changed and. i think i do think schools have a role to play and you know i have seen where for example in schools bus drivers
6:39 am
have gone into primary schools and spoken to six and seven year olds and chain them c.c.t.v. footage of themselves being stoned by your boss and i talk to these young people about how they felt and how humiliated they felt and not really for me was very convincingly sort of getting young children thinking other people's feelings and developing a conscience ok last time i worked. classroom but how does that transfer know why level of society you could argument obviously they view ed miliband has said to everyone in the past and read the spirit level which is the seminal book about inequality causing ultimately many of society's ills and yet we have a very. cool society which brought on divisions of rich and poor rich which have affected things and i found so there's lots and lots of little
6:40 am
things that need to happen and i would really worry that this current government doesn't. know sorts of nuts and bolts things you know they need to look at how the police are behaving they need to improve perhaps certain things with an underclass in school they need to look at parenting in those we never personally in this country be not well governed to me again have this adversarial system that hasn't actually served us that well. constantly have these chopping and changing of policy there's nothing that seen through in any kind of long term basis there's no consensus about education health whatever you know it seems that the government's going to come down very tough on those so-called rights and handing out strict punishments and things more sort of thing do you think will do more harm than good . and we know it well i mean again it's back to a kind of holding the scandinavian model of rehabilitation in finland in sweden in
6:41 am
norway is the only serious way that you actually deal with these problems on the long term level but just banging them up in prison in this way which are overcrowded communities prisons are all prime factors they. consider this in the right in that it gave the president a sixty seven percent opinion and these people go into prison they come out may we have found again the reaction in many parts of the country from communities. the launch vigilante groups clearly they're angry and they want a heavy handed response is that the answer i don't think the public are very well educated about how and why children come to do this so for example there's a lot of discussion around how parents should be getting their children and you know disciplining them or it is so much evidence and all my experience as a teacher is that the children hit by their parents are the ones that are the worst behaved you know and that just doesn't come out in the kind of general conversation
6:42 am
and it's a sort of need jerk reaction you know we need to be much tougher when we know it doesn't work in the long run ok so what should we do then if we say see thirteen year old walking down the street so we give him a hug i think again it's much more. perhaps he should say building relationships within communities is very important this is something i've argued with you know quite strongly on on the web site and in my writing you know we have very socially said great to communities and socially segregated schools you know that even if you do where you have schools where all clean she come together where you have communities that actually know each other these sorts of problems are dealt with in a bit better fashion francis girl thanks very much thank you. thanks

christine twenty million years for the planet to recover from a major extinction event for the planet is time we don't. it's been going on for about twenty three years and since it's been eco terrorists before there was even islamic fundamentalist terrorist in this country when the nine eleven happened the bush administration could not find. any terrorists because the feds couldn't find any real terrorists they decided to take these young people who were accused of property sabotage and label them as terrorists someone he'll destroy his property. with absolutely zero intention of harming a single human being. in my mind it's not fair and real people who are green in this country are the housewives who recycle. and the children who play trees on the
