Rioters were 'unruly mob' claims May

Society Survey found most children believe that poverty is a cause of the riots, the struggle against the Minister of Interior officials say they were career criminals

Theresa May has rejected many of the conclusions of these riots Guardian / LSE reading of the study - the largest collection of interviews with people involved in the riots of the summer in England - arguing that participate to implement an unruly "mob" that were "thieves, pure and simple."

But a report by the charity Kids Company, who interviewed 13 to 17 years of age and adults, found that young people in the UK believe that poverty is the One of the main reasons behind the riots of August. Of those surveyed, 66% of adults and 57% had thought people rioted "for goods and personal effects that could not afford," according to the survey of 1004 adults and 1027 children.

Writing in the Mail on Sunday, the Interior Minister said that the discomfort does not refer to "protest against unemployment or cuts. They were about the future, tomorrow and hold a person in the world. Today, about now. They were about instant gratification. "

Enver Solomon, political director of Children's Society, said the perceived meaning of "material deprivation" could not be overlooked as a factor in the origin of the disorder. "This research shows that Theresa May is out of step with most children and adults in this country, when we say that the riots were of instant gratification," he said. "Most people believe that the riots were caused by a number of factors - and the disadvantages of poverty and material are at the heart of it. "

analysis of more than 1000 court records show that 59% of England, the rioters in the most deprived 20% areas in the UK. Analysis by the Department of Education and the Department of Justice Youth riot defendants who are 64% came from the poorest fifth of areas and only 3% of the richest.

Riots Guardian / LSE's report - which surveyed 270 people involved in the riots - found that opportunism played a role in the riots when a suspension "of the normal rules of these represents a opportunity to buy goods and luxury items that normally could not afford. "

But the protesters have also identified a number of complaints of motivation "for the increase in tuition for the closure of youth services and the elimination of the maintenance of education , "the report said.

Only 7% of adults and 5% of children surveyed in the report of the Company for the children behind the riots, said the anger in the courts played an important role in the riots. However, 29% of 17 year cuts cited as a reason behind the riots, with 67% who say more government support was necessary after the riots.

• "The outlook for this age group are quite dark," said Solomon. "They considered in particular the reduction of public services, they face great uncertainty and are particularly affected by levels high youth unemployment. "A young man interviewed for the report." Young people are not a priority ... the government must listen "
• The report found one in five (19%) of boys and 23% of adults believe that people had taken part "just for fun."

Many children and young people felt the perception of them had deteriorated since the riots, with the feeling that 20% were seen more negatively. "Our results show that there is an agreement between the adults and children that the government should offer more support to young people," says Solomon.

"This sends a clear message to central and local government that the public wants to see more positive activities available to children rather than a reduction in the provision of school youth who do not. with great difficulties now faced by children and young adults, in the case of investment in youth should be taken seriously. "

Article comments may not repeat the initial line of the government after the riots that gangs were at the center of the riots. Reading the riots found that the role had been exaggerated and gangs gang members involved had acted in a completely atypical for the duration of the disruption, the temporary suspension of hostilities with rival postal code.
But he stressed the fact that almost two thirds of those put on trial were charged with theft, assault or theft. "So we know that were not really trying to make a political statement or social, but they were thieves, pure and simple," wrote

drug dealer faces up to 23 years in prison after admitting to the U.S. court for trafficking and violence

a Jamaican drug dealer sparked a small war in Kingston last year in an attempt to avoid extradition to the United States faces 20 years in prison after pleading guilty in a court in New York with trafficking and violence.

Christopher "Dudus" Coke, 42, was once considered by many Jamaicans as the most powerful man in the country, admitted trafficking more than three tons of marijuana and 30 pounds (14 kg) of cocaine to the United States, and ordering the stabbing of a marijuana dealer in New York.

"I plead guilty because I am," said Coca-Cola, who faces 23 years in prison when sentenced in December.

why Coca-Cola has saved a possible life sentence, was welcomed by the political leadership in Jamaica. Some will be relieved that does not force you to reveal the powerful political connections that allowed him to run his drug empire unhindered by the Tivoli Gardens neighborhood of the capital, Kingston, until the government finally yielded to the pressure from the United States. UU. last year and sent the police and army to stop it.

More than 70 people died in the battle, some in the summary execution-style killings of the soldiers.

Coca-Cola has signed an agreement a week after a judge ruled that the tapes to listen to telephone conversations in which he analyzes traffic in marijuana, cocaine and weapons could be played in the yard.

also faced several witnesses who prosecutors said they would testify that Coca-Cola released a small army and violent, known as the Shower Posse, because of their tactics shower with balls their enemies, to control the smuggling of drugs through Jamaica. Prosecutors said evidence that Coca-Cola has personally killed several people, including cutting of a man with a chainsaw.

prosecutors said he was also personally responsible for other murders, shootings and beatings. "Because of heavily armed soldiers patrolling in Coca-Cola Community Tivoli Gardens, which was largely closed to the police in Jamaica," said prosecutors in court documents.

"The influence of Coca-Cola headquarters in New York on drug trafficking co-conspirators, from its base in Kingston, was primarily a function of the participation of their soldiers and the reputation of violence and the fact that many of these dealers based on the family was in Jamaica and therefore more vulnerable to threats and intimidation. "

Peter Bunting, the security minister for the opposition People's National Party, the Jamaica Gleaner said he was not surprised by the declaration of Coca-Cola.

"Once the request of Mr. Coke to reject the evidence of wiretaps as evidence was rejected by the court, there would be little chance that the remoteness of the evidence with the cooperation of witnesses, was so strong. "

Before his conviction in the month of speculation in Jamaica suggested that Coca-Cola will try to avoid a conviction more important to do a deal with prosecutors to be very embarrassing for the Government of Jamaica and some prominent politicians.

Tivoli Gardens is a neighborhood known as "barracks," as they were built by one of Jamaica's two political parties during their rotations of power and can be used to deliver the vote accordingly.

also proved to be fertile ground for organized crime has become key to the parties to maintain their control over the vote.

• Tivoli Gardens is the constituency of the Prime Minister of Jamaica, Bruce Golding, who denied links with Coca-Cola.

However, the drug lord commanded considerable support in the Tivoli Gardens, helping the poor send their children to school and buy food and clothing to the difficulty of families, and was seen as a political force in the delivery of votes for his party Golding.

political and business leaders promised that the country's political ties to organized crime and the dependence of the poor in the band would change after Coca-Cola was extradited, but the residents of Tivoli Gardens have complained because they have seen some improvement in their situation.

In Valencia, 120 km east of the areas devastated by the washi, police units and the military used helicopters to rescue some 300 families begin the roofs, the World Food Programme said.

The state's workforce: longer terms and conditions

With funds tight, it is more important than ever book on the last pay of the school can be justified by the students of the education they receive

Michael Gove

loves nothing more than a battle with the teachers' unions, which in turn enjoy nothing more than to hit the new Secretary of Education. As both parties used to talk to the news Friday on accelerating the process of removing bad teachers, the first plans established in the spring, it will directly affect a tiny minority of the profession. The two sides once tango in mutual hatred has to face the hard truths that are now biting -. In the public sector

Consider first the unions, which are expenses of a fight for pensions, which has won awards is the intelligent use of the threat of a strike. This could stimulate the imagination that, with sufficient determination to resist a Conservative government to carry all before them. It is an illusion - both in general and the particular context of trying to protect the security of tenure throughout. Long before the election, it was clear that public services are in line narrowing severe, and this continues even if the change of government. Books can and must be constantly balanced - even to him, with taxes making more work - but the cost would be limited. After a recession that was first held back wages private but public, government employees is not enjoyed a sudden increase in the relative earnings. Thus, for the analysis of the latest Institute for Fiscal Studies suggests that public sector wages are now slightly higher than private, even after adjustment for highly skilled labor in the state. This adds a breach of public and private pension, which is underlined by the new movement of Shell to close the salary last final of the FTSE 100.

• encircled ministers when they said public sector pensions were not available, the state can afford if you choose. But it would have been closer to the mark had he said it was an option that some taxpayers would be. Polls Guardian / ICM suggest that voters are more interested in cheaper than the protection of gas service if there is money to spare. With funds tight, it is more important than ever book on the last pay of the school can be justified by the students of the education they receive, including spending on wages.

already mechanisms to remove officials who can not cope with this demanding work - if there are particular barriers to dismissal in these schools are more cultural than legal - but they must be effective. If poor performers are increasingly transferred from one facility to another, it seems reasonable that potential employers should be able to ask questions about past mistakes, but only if it is established, rather than just suspects. The dangers of bullying are real and should be monitored, but risk of injustice must be weighed against the injustice of the students who stuck with teachers who are simply not up to par.

If you get the value of the payroll is the objective, which is so important to encourage many good teachers, as it is to deal with some not - that's where the lessons Mr Gove difficult come in. This will be achieved by terrorizing the profession through the exaggeration of changes in dismissal procedures, which currently are not as extensive as he says. Teachers, for fear of the bag is not sincere about their shortcomings in the assessments that provide the best way to cope. And in a week that a woman should have already lost a kidney to his liver and his life was downright absurd to suggest to Mr. Gove mail if not tolerated in education, because it is never in medicine. Just as irritating to the teachers work hard - as prison officials, an unusual profession for working with customers do not want - your suggestion was stupid not to consider shorter holidays in the sense that encourages additional work offset, but should see the longer term, as a great opportunity "to have more than one opportunity to" do their job. Tough times demand hard to think around.
