the. puck i'm back with our team live from moscow with me roland centric and a recap of the top stories without breaking news this hour libyan rebels reportedly seize control of most of the capital following a major nato back advances but according to government numbers so one hundred thirteen are always used me by one thousand three hundred people killed but some sources on the ground have told us either it's too early to say tripoli's for them want to gadhafi sons is reportedly leading forces in on the city center. meanwhile the massive celebrations are in a full swing in the center of the rebel stronghold of benghazi but experts neutral
6:31 am
parallels to the events in egypt one of the disillusionment the bill buckley form. and a disproportionate justice british judges are accused of over reacting in cases ranging from recent rioting to a war veteran who recorded a court hearing human rights groups have raised the alarm over harsh punishments that often don't match the critics. but it's not just the country's justice system that's come under scrutiny following the riots. bennett talked to british jones about the problems in british society the unrest continues to expose. i'm joined by owen jones author of a book called chair of the demonization of the working classes thanks jill dougherty the demonization of the working classes what do you mean by that and what to do with the riots i think there's been this myth which the political
6:32 am
establishment and journalists the light of embrace basically everybody in britain is middle class and all that remains of the old working class is a sort of problematic fact within the class what we saw with these rights advocates it's i think linked in a sense because it helps reinforce this i business travel in the class which is waiting you know which is not only lazy in fact with but also violent which is how the government running commentators have been trying to get why is there this myth about the working class and how was it created and why the riots being blamed on them well i think what we saw in the 1980's in this country was an attack on a lot the pillars of working class britain industries that sustained a lot of communities institutions not trade unions council housing values which in communities were very strong like solidarity in favor of rugged individualism by the end of the eighty's there wasn't the same sense of being able
6:33 am
to be proud of being a working class everyone supposed to seem to be called middle class. but for aspiration means in britain so because of all that was the working class became the trade in a very negative way particularly as we became all equal and then it was all equal society people justify that inequality by saying well actually the people at the bottom of that because they deserve to be there they're lazy violent. stupid and that is a justification for inequality and that's not to say they want social problems in this country right violence and crime or whatever but the real info. five young people narrative work in the community worth of facts about the rights that talk to the thirty thought of employing people facing chasing every drop so i think problems what we saw last week another a whole range of other social problems i think unemployment and poverty provide for a tile ground for the growth so it's not to justify it is just to try and explain
6:34 am
why these things happen in order to stop it from happening again so using politicians have been quick to blame all of this and see criminality and say there's a this is a broken society do you think that's just a way of covering up the ills of a society they've created absolutely i mean basically what they're trying to do is to a social issue into a moral issue they're reinforcing the idea that if you or your benefits are kind of mass unemployment that your behavior is it when actually you know in this country now there's a problem of lack of jobs we've got to know half a million people unemployed another million incapacity benefit are going to put into work there's less than half a million vacancies there's not enough jobs to go around it's very convenient for the government to say actually all these people on unemployment benefits are is there room for all of the hades that fall and that's what's need to be so that's what needs to be sorted out and not the issue regrets that you not agree with some
6:35 am
extent knowing these people who were clearly have no idea that violence is not the answer i mean no one's justify what happened and understanding it's the whole are starting what has to be this must never happen again people will never be terrorized in their communities as they were last week with what is five people young people out of a job only takes a small proportion of those people feel they have no future it's a risk to act in this way to bring chaos and violence in the streets of our city and i mean there's other issues too i think i think consumerism and the society has a lot of responsibility in britain your status has so much to do with what you possess. and what you wear. for a lot of all young people want to be part of the society but there's a whole group of people particularly poor communities who feel they have no access to it and in a perverse way i think that's what you saw in places like hackney where you've got some of the poorest people living on some of the richest right in the sense of wonder and i think that part of inequality mixed with hyper consumerism helps
6:36 am
create that situation that we saw in the shop you mentioned this inequality in that the u.k.'s policy for some time has been some mix rich and poor living in the same areas bringing the council houses and filling areas and vice a versa you know the thing that's work. i think the problem with that is you end up with lots of shops pricing out a lot the people who live there actually pushes up the cost of living for the people but yes i think mixing and social mixing is good you only have to look at paris where the rich are concentrated in the middle and the poor construct around the idea so don't know that it's good to be mixing but the problem in london is it's well known in cities in the western world the top ten percent are over two hundred sixty times richer than the bottom seven percent so they see you have people living alongside some of the richest people in the world looking at live they will all likelihood never. what we need to do is to tackle that inequality
6:37 am
because at the moment people are getting a fair share of the british economy so how do you breach saying that well we need more progressive taxation we need higher taxes on the rich in order to take more people at the bottom out of taxation altogether we need a living wage so people at the bottom especially a place like london the most expensive cities on the planet the minimum wage in the country is just not enough to live on you can't support a family with it so these are huge social problems which aren't being addressed and we have these problems at a time when people at the top are richer than ever is this also. case then of the bad example being set from the top down five being m.p.'s expenses scandal bankers bonuses still getting paid despite the crisis if we look at the m.p.'s in particular he stood up to the now sleaze allude to just three years ago they were embroiled in a huge expensive scandal let's be honest they were taking money from the tax there
6:38 am
at the same sort of wide screen t.v.'s that were being crafted up shots last week give you one example general counsel of. the labor m.p. he stood up to them and actually taken against the looters he claimed eight and a half thousand pounds for going all of the television that whilst one twenty three year old has just been sent to prison for six months for stealing three hundred fifty worth of water to a right so yes we have a plan has plunged into an economic crisis we have the politicians he stole from the taxpayer we recently have the news international scandal where police will be bribed by journalists what happened last week was more disorderly that all but the example of things that are the top the way the government is dealing with this choosing it's a way to kind of legitimize right wing ideals and things like tougher policing cracking down on social media i think these riots have been manipulated by the government quite frankly people understandably angry and they're scared but what this government is doing is using that to justify attack from people on benefits
6:39 am
we've seen attacks on single parents this idea fatherless families are responsible we've seen recently david starkey the historian trying to scapegoat black people in black culture and we're now talking about crack down in terms of law and order attacks and civil liberties by government which probably is a defensive liberties against your tax for new labor and even as you say a tax on the idea that social media to be closed down which didn't even happen in a lot of authoritarian regimes when they were all price of care about them i mentioned the starkey that you're involved in that the bait. he. mentioned the once they've become blacks in other courses there has been talk of multiculturalism being for the failure of it being the cause of these laws do you give any kind of credence to that argument without the racial issue coming into play of these riots let me be clear about david starkey what he said was a very racist this was an attempt to scapegoat people this whole range of people
6:40 am
involved from different ethnic backgrounds the common factor with all of them is poverty and unemployment and again it's not justification what happened was completely inexcusable if you have a lot of people who don't feel they have a future of whatever ethnic background only takes a small proportion and to respond in this outrageous way to bring credibility to look good but multiculturalism and ethnic groups have nothing to do with what happened we still haven't seen the full effects of the austerity cuts things like higher education police start still plan to be going through when it does these things things will get worse i think the danger is that these riots a dark force over which worth. the perfect storm the haven't yet as rising youth unemployment. took away the educational made for allowance which is paid to pour over sixty in your favor to cation university
6:41 am
tuition fees have been troubled all of these to get their breeding will breed continue to breed. more devastatingly increasing numbers of people who feel they have no future they feel they have nothing to look forward to and i think we could see a lot worse down the line in the courts the government's response when you cross those as kneejerk at the same time seems to be mirroring public opinion the public want the government to crack down on the perpetrators and they want them to be punished severely nothing that's a good idea look people are angry and people are scared because of what happened but this should be a test of democracy in a country like they're. already. an inevitable backlash that should not let people allow justice to be subverted this country couldn't are now talking of taking away benefits and council houses from those who were involved in the riots now what that says he will be punished twice for pink committing crime if you are poor because obviously that will not affect anyone it was the council and isn't on benefits now
6:42 am
i think we need to be just to. be proportionate to the crime and the idea of attacking poor people more than the all the people for polishing them twice is fundamentally unjust and also self-defeating because if we take away all forms of income and also means of housing from people what reason is there not to be involved in criminality i mean in effect that because your own means of survival so i think this is near hysteria gripping the magistrates in this country and we need to resist our own jones thank you.
