british courts race to read the riot act to those behind the recent looting in violence but human rights groups accuse judges of laying down disproportionate disproportionate. topflight trade at the international air show in moscow and the nerves of steel from russia's premier pilots as they take our t.v.'s on white all ride. for salvation as white sox or as appears the syrian government of atrocities against protesters some syrians say they're glad to see tanks moving into their town.
12:01 am
good morning to you here from moscow you're watching our it seems live with me and you so now it's eight am in the russian capital our top story british courts are coming down hard on the rioters to spread may have last week but human rights groups are accusing john judas of the reacting by dishing out severe penalties to score popularity points two men were jailed for four years each for trying to incite street violence through facebook but prime minister david cameron defended it saying it sends back tough message arches ivor bennett reports now from one. four years behind bars for the riot that didn't even happen jordan black sure and perry sutcliffe kenan were banged up for inciting disorder on facebook no one turned up after their invitation to riot which they later said was a drunken joke but now they face sentences even tougher than most looters and i worry is that it is an imbalance
12:02 am
a four year sentence for example would normally be given to somebody for a previous portly harm for holding someone up with a knife or even for. some form of sexual assault so it seems to me that that there is a danger that the courts are moving into disproportionate territory not actually devalues our response to more serious crimes to governments encourage courts to dish out harsh sentences by using the public disturbance as an aggravating factor it's meant this man anderson fernandez could even be sent to jail for theft of just two scoops of ice cream because like this one denying bail to most offenders and ignoring any claims of previous good character of the one thousand two hundred seventy seven people charged so far two thirds have been remanded in custody that's way up on last year's rate for serious crimes which is just ten percent some offenders even being made homeless is their punishment with local governments
12:03 am
taking away their houses but many say it's all simply cause more harm than good i think this is very unwise the move to remove people from hosing internet benefits because actually if we are seeing that some of the crime that we saw on the streets was an expression of people not feeling port facility not feeling portable communities and these measures are actually going to push it further away from society further away from more communities and for more likely to commit crime the facebook case is the first sign of the government's desire to crack down on social media sites like twitter were applauded by the west mobilizing the masses in the arab world but they were also instrumental in the u.k. riots so now the prime minister wants it to stop. we are working with the police the intelligence services and industry to look at whether it would be right to stop people communicating via these websites and services when we know they are plotting violence disorder and criminality when social media fuel revolutions in egypt and
12:04 am
tunisia written called it democracy but now the shoe's on the other foot when troubles closer to home are very conscious mean you know their. movements only would be the first to complete. the. country's war. their prime minister says this is where britain fights back but it's this fighting fire with fire could only fan the flames of civil disorder are prevented artsy london. london's police say they've charged over a thousand people over the riots were aiming to provoke three times that number also commentator david bowden says the government's response has a thousand attempt to regain control. i think the question you have to ask yourself whether they will actually restore much or story to your credibility by cracking down in quite severe and often incoherent why people who were necessarily heavily
12:05 am
involved in the problem you have to the question of the decline of wealth or three within british society is a long running social problem is a very complex one to deal with but i think we can safely say that the kind of people who are crying out in the streets and stuff to fight should police officers he was visibly sharing in their enjoyment of the week you know police authorities were not necessarily be shaken from their actions because a teenager he said that he thought was right so a good idea has been community service i think we've seen quite a superficial and dangerous kneejerk reaction now from the police and the authorities as they try to regain that will protect it superficially to see people being hounded quite severe sentence is quite a minor role in the riots and is dangerous because we now see. immediate reaction to people. in flight to say they want to have a rights even if they haven't followed up with organizing the rights itself which is already i think. the distinction between action and speech so you have one of
12:06 am
the cases where somebody was trying to organize a riots which sees a crime in something you want to deal with quite seriously then you have somebody else who said he wanted to organize a right to go to extreme lengths to try and organize that because it was a joke and he's been treated exactly the same to verity. now it's big numbers big sales and so stopping stunts that the x. twenty eleven era show in moscow and art is there. among those stealing the limelight is the latest russian stealth fighter the two fifty which debuted on wednesday its wind up among the bassinets class like america's after twenty two fighter here it is showing what it can do for the crowd at max twenty allowed ben but it's not all about military hardware the big names in civilian aviation are there too including boeing and airbus and all they're selling

an easy ride for air travelers take a look at these guys these are the russian knights and the swifts it takes a lot to put these aircraft through manic movers like these in artie's very old tom dart discovered by. engine check. instruments check. runway check and then it's takeoff for the russian aerobatic display team. their nine first class pilots with performed over two hundred times in the past nineteen years but they all have to start somewhere. andre is training to join the team he thinks he's merely good enough now but still remembers his first run as a so i really could go without any warning they told me i was going to do the next flight on my own i had no time to be scared there was no longer an instructor at my back it was unforgettable takeoff you on your own controlling the plane then when
12:08 am
you learnt you've done it i think you're a real pilot at that point. yes moves are always trying to hold them the movers they practiced most weekends thinking the new tricks and practicing old ones for me but the work of a book we come up with stone and being research. them but it's all concerns are you keeping them before mr dove a russian came out with a lunatic and all the other stunts are based on the loop the loop is the basis for all aerial acrobatics. however it always comes down to time in the end even with years of flying and training experienced between them it never becomes easy for her difficult with so little that when you leave the cockpit you can squeeze a gallon of sweat from your suit what if your knees are shaking because it's extremely difficult and stressful and anyone with fuel that was. so with that gut wrenching fear ringing in my ears i was told it was mine to put crowds on the ground this is
12:09 am
an exciting spectacle but that's not quite the emotion that's going through my mind at the moment because i'm about to see what happens from inside the cockpit. we did the loop the loop all the planes just meters apart. it. but when it came to the fountain i nearly blacked out. white faced but not defeated i returned to. k k. k k. k. k. k.
12:10 am
but i could also see some of the strains that go through. her there's no escape and if you know you might be for the crowds but serial acrobatics aren't issued to the pilots it's always a difficult job that a terrorist pilot has to show his skill and the beauty of fly it so next time you look up at those speeding planes spare a thought for the pilot and someone. from bottom party. but a very brave guy there about stay with us throughout the wait for the best of the series locks carousel and first class covers. from. the future. our team takes to the air show. that's not the un's human

on on what what is clearly a fault line and in an area where there are known to be. quakes and we see the result of having done that you cannot really believe that you can cage these things and expect them not to come out and not to have these sorts of accidents and other accidents we look in the future and these accidents are so terrifying the consequences of them are so pawling that really we cannot afford to choose this method to generate a great because there was you can't stop it just now because that would bring the whole of profound to a whole because it depends so so much from the fact that steam is coming out and we know that the steam contains the isotopes so for thirty five effectively we're producing a very large quantities of radionuclides all the time and they haven't been able to deal with that it's just being ignored is being it's being it's not being adequately reported by the authorities in japan or indeed in the its own international atomic energy agency. arjay dot com is always online for you with the
