Parents should be able to spend more time with their kids instead of having to work so much to pay bills and living expenses. They have no incentive to stay on in education when they have so many expenses parents can not afford because wages are being cut. There are few youth services and they have huge debt to cope with when they leave education.
A genuine uprising in Libya that was in favour of democracy, was highjacked by a middle class minority who wanted the interference of the war machine. They have risked turning the country in to another Iraq. This young man was speaking a great deal of sense and truth. All things the ConDems can't understand.
so hes saying screw the people that are getting killed everyday and help us get a job because the free £50 a week is not good enough. bullshit. forget about our small problems and help the poor bastards who are dying. the 1st world public are some ignorant and selfish people.
I had a friend who was going to go onto Newsnight and his question was why are we spending so much money on overseas aid when we have enough problems here to sort out first? The BBC wouldn't let him ask that question as overseas aid was not allowed to be discussed. It's absolutely appalling! The guy in the video has got it bang on; sort out our problems here before spending billions on other places!!
@moggie94 overseas aid is usually profitable for us, not that I condone it.
eg congo receive X amount of aid in exchange for signed contracts agreeing to produce X amount of crop/resource for X price. Look into it, it's fucked.
come down to VIBES and PRESSURE on the 2 of september @ passing clouds, London. It will be kicking off with a live discussion on the truth behind the riots, followed by a nice of quality music, come down and put your voice forward!
I think he dont understand the fact that these 100's of thousands of pounds bring 10's of billions of pounds from Lybia and the OIL they got over there... if U.S, U.K, France or Italy care about helping humans they would do it in their own countries,,, not going out thousands of miles to fight terrorism or give rights to people. .... They go there to bomb them, nuke them, gas them and get all their wealth from them.
@JayyKhan You are wrong, Leon is very well-informed on these issues. How thick do you have to be not to know that our government is motivated by money and oil and don't care about human life?
@StompKat go and do your own research, coz your own media is run by zionists.. the propagandas machines. if its not motivated by OIL, GAS and money then where is the mass distructions in Iraq that your goverment is looking for ??? they brought the oil from there they didnt even wiegh... killing more than 250,000 civilians... why is afghanistan drug problem increased by more than 800% after U.S and U.K invasion... the fact is that the truth is always never told to you people..
Just because your poor or anything dosen't give u the right to make other people poor by burning down their shops and stealing from their stores. and not all youths for the choices others have made
@emocookiez13 Ahhh he werent arguing for the rioters saying its right, If you listened properly he was talking about the whole people in the UK, and saying the mayor/ ministers etc. should help the country more than concentrating on wars that aint getting nowhere :), (If you noticed, Boris agreed with him "/)

@solidsneak12 I fucking live in England, I know the whole story pal.

While pieces of shit loot a foot locker to get brand new trainers, they were storming the beaches of Normandy fighting Nazi Germany. Young people today should be ashamed of themselves, you're fucking pathetic.
@metalslugxBTB That isn't entirely true to be fair. These young men you mentioned, the majority were compelled to join the Army because of the National Service laws that were around in that period of time. If only some of them "stormed the beaches of Normandy fighting Nazi Germany" by choice then what makes them any better than the youth of today? Don't just throw around these sweeping claims condemning the youth of today because you're angry. Back it up with hard evidence or leave it unsaid.

OK shut the fuck up? Wow If you need to hurl that kind of crap at people every time you disagree then you need to grow up and learn to have mature adult discussions properly.
@mastermindonline I don't have grown up conversations with people who have to ask if the WWII youth were better than todays poor excuse for human beings.
@metalslugxBTB Judging by the comments on your page I'd say you were pretty much a poor excuse also, but that doesn't matter. What you do in your time doesn't concern me. The only thing here that matters is that I'm speaking on the basis of facts and you are speaking on the basis of opinion. End of discussion.
@mastermindonline Mr. Factmaster, please shows me the cost of private property that was destroyed by the looters, and compare that to the cost of benefits the looters and their families receive. Please and thank you. :)
@metalslugxBTB people aren't born like this mate, they are created not just poor upbringing to blame, no sense of a future in any sort of way also fueled it.. who's to blame for creating such a place where people feel the need to tear it back down? oh lets starting thinking like you, it's out of senseless violence and criminality, don't compare the people of today to back then that's not relevant. if i was born back then in the same conditions i would go to war too and i'm sure they would
@solidsneak12 "who's to blame for creating such a place where people feel the need to tear it back down?"
The parents. The fact you equate life in an industrialized nation such as the UK shows your disconnect for the real world. Lack of opportunity? Do you have idea how much tax money goes into their education? Protesters are being slaughtered in Syria and the youth in the UK get thousands of dollars per year for their education. No sense of a future my ass... Go home kid.
@metalslugxBTB dollars? kid? still claiming to live in england? i'm here in the real world, i live in london, i know what it's like and how shit it's been.. i've seen what this place has done to people i used to know
The government were not bothered about the small businesses and people affected because the riots because the riots were not a protest against them. I'm sure if there was oil in the areas that were affected, the government would send in NATO.
Spoken exactly how it is! This guy has had his voice across to the mayor of London but only problem is they don't care. They are rich enough to not know any effects these cuts are having on people!
Well said young man the government are supposed to work for us just like the police but obviously they don't and we the people must make them understand or crash them
Black, white, gay, straight, asian, whatever. We must all be united against this government and what it stands for. Repression of the poorest and most vulnerable of our society. The rich getting richer the poor getting poorer. This young guy is brilliant.
@metalslugxBTB ok they might have attacked some camera men all them are them chavs that think their bad and let me guess your American right? listen the government have benn cuting the youth fees and all the money they spend loads of money abroad when they are the only ones in debt
@MrFadzz The USA spends more money per student on education than any country in the world, and it has had no effect. These chav cocksuckers don't give a shit about school. What the fuck makes you think they will be excited if their school gets a new science lab? They don't give a shit, they just want some brand new trainers. Quit making these scumbags into victims. Lock them up and let them rot.
He can't say that looting is the effect of making cut backs to students and youths, there would still be youths out looting whether there is jobs and cheap education for us, the looters/rioters are thugs that are trying to get something for nothing
@metalslugxBTB Yes your right it's the parents, now next step, why are the parents idiots? Are you going to pin this on an infinite trail of idiocy in several specific family trees or see how nurture HAS an attributing factor. Anyway the point is once you accept nurture as having an affect then the point is to find a way to nurture these people to their optimum state, or do you suggest a Nazi esq elimination of people that don't make certain social standards? Or prison, and will you pay the bill
@hyylo Actually i never said either was better , both are bought and paid for puppets of the world banks. Its fun to hate the heads of state but like i said they are only the puppets.
The comment that somehow made top comment was just a joke and does not endorse nore support obama.Truthfully though i might have sold the kid short with the comment as i do believe in what hes saying.
@outliveyouall Being so my comment was removed for some reason,Wealthy I mean by working hard get the degrees I need and everything else...doing it all on my own to be able to have a good income job...everyone is capable I was not pushed I did this all of my own back so surely they can to.
@corps3y : Yeah so was a few of mine :/ Don't know why and not too happy bout that but oh well :P
Yes but where did you learn that attitude from? Where did you get the idea that that was the best way to do things? That that would get you through and sort out your life? I'm sure they CAN but they don't understand that they can, or the reason why? At the same time not everyone in the world will, or can, get the same quality of job or pay in job. This will effect peoples contentedness and unease.
@corps3y It's not about wealth it's about education and social environment. Of course this doesn't justify what they've done, but we need to focus on the WHY they did it so that we can make steps to change for the better
@MrFadzz That's fucking bullshit. If the anarchy created by the hooded scumbags of society was any kind of "cause." THEN WHY DID THEY ATTACK CAMERA CREWS WHEN THEY TRIED TO INTERVIEW THEM!?
@metalslugxBTB Because that would be incriminating evidence. The problem was no-one listened to them in the first place, or they listened and disregarded their statements as stupid or inferior. Like right now I disagree with what your saying but I don't think your an idiot you just have had a different upbringing with different understandings, morals, hygiene standards, etc.
@outliveyouall If speaking your voice into a camera is incriminating evidence... THEN OBVIOUSLY YOU AREN'T PART OF A FUCKING CAUSE! These aren't protesters, they are criminals.
Nobody listened? So when nobody listens to me, my logical next step is to burn down innocent people's homes... FUCK YOU. Quit trying to make this out into a political statement. Politics don't have anything to do with this. This was the scum of the earth doing what they do best, making society scum for others.
@metalslugxBTB Hi i saw u comment and thought i should reply to you direct! (I am Leon Fearon)
you have stated an opinion and also been very offecsive how to do think that is going to get you anywhere or to come across as a good person as im sure that what we all want!
I bellieve every1 has a role to play and it how 1 get the point across.
I thknk you should consider re-sending ur statment in a better light so it more understood cz the swearing makes u look very low
@metalslugxBTB : Your comment before this was removed so sorry if I miss anything.
First things first the capitols really aren't necessary anymore, shouting really isn't needed on the internet and I UNDERSTAND why and that you are angry (Because you care about people too), just like I UNDERSTAND why they are angry (Because they feel they're being cheated) WHETHER either appears true to either perspective, or appears to justify the behavior to either. <This is the key to the argument here
Also this is politics to begin with because it's based around law. It's also based around the police and their treatment of people (In relation to the shooting matter). It's also based around politics because it's the education system, which is controlled by politics. Also it's politics because it's financial status of people in some cases (Though not all as we've seen with the rich child criminal, though don't start saying because of one case that rules out all others)
@metalslugxBTB : also you have still failed to state why you think that nurture has no attributing factor to the morals, knowledge, and personality of a child? Obviously DNA has a factor but you're not seriously telling me a person will always be the same no matter what situations happen during their lives? The amount of studies done with twins proves that
@metalslugxBTB : Ok just found your other comment through my e-mails :)
How are you claiming there isn't a correlation between not knowing something and being an idiot as far as the terms definition goes? This isn't me calling you an idiot for I don't know you but normally an idiot is someone who doesn't know something.
Also if you don't know why on what grounds are you throwing out that "scum" can't be nurtured? If you can nurture ethics why can't you nurture scum?
He made the point clear in my opinion, your making cuts to education here while increasing spending in regards to forign policy's for abroad, i.e. Libya where the UK has spent around 260 million in that "conflict" to date
He's saying get your house in order, helping the youth of this country before helping the youth of Libya. Afterall they work for us and it's our tax money.
Imagine what 260 one million pound youth centre's would do for the young people of this country!?
@ZeGrinchizback well UK is spending money in Libya but there are loads of problems at home in the UK. Charity begins at home..we cant even sort out the Uk problems but we are in Libya. Like the guy said we cant help everyone.
In Somalia & Ethiopia People are Dying of Famine, In Egypt People are Fighting Freedom, In Syria People are Fighting to Live, Here in the UK People are Fighting for Nike Trainers!! I have NO Sympathy for These Vile Low Life Sick & Twisted Looters i.e. Thieves!! The Looters & their Sick Parents can NOT Justify what they have done in a Million Years!! Here in the UK People don’t Appreciate what they have compared to some. Those Little Shit’s Destroyed People Lives!!
I have just emailed the BBC newswatch the following "If you are aiming to report the riots in an unbias way, I would like to know why this video of an intelligent young man talking to Boris Johnson has not been aired on the BBC? I would like to see this on the news, here is a link for your information. *insert link here*
Here is a link if anyone wants to do the same - news dot bbc dot co dot uk slash newswatch slash ukfshi slash feedback slash default dot stm
@StompKat It hasn't been aired because no mature and well informed ADULT cares for his excuses. They are only excuses from immature kids who contribute absolutely nothing to society and are not living in the real world.
@OhMaDayzz Ah well, as long as we have mature and well-informed adults such as yourself to tell us all the right information we should be alright, eh!? :) I am extremely grateful to you and what you have brought to this discussion.
Look at that. A black youth who is standing up for our contry and showing that the misconception of black people is just way too wrong and the rioters are not all black like many have been saying! The uni fees for me next year are 3grand and for my cousin next year it goes up to 9grand a year! They are sick and making the poor poorer and the ritch ritcher. But these riots disgust me!
@SOUTHLDNUK Have you seen the university fees? They say studying a degree, nowadays, is the same price as buying a house. Personally, I think you're the idiot.
@SupaaFx New uni fees will be £9000 a year which is £27, 000 over the courseof your study which is all paid upfront by the government. I didn't know you could by a house for that little... wow!
"There is a reason for everything" ???!! ...no there aint
Youths getting bored so they smash up houses and shops.. come on dude look at other countries.. that doesn't justify shit.. this is a fundamental disease within society.. thats why there is a big big difference between PROTESTING against government policies and RIOTING aimlessly...
@PhantaJisto The way u put it is actually pretty difficult to understand, but it doesnt need to be.. u see this isnt a very complicated matter. The whole thing is just one childish act went horribly wrong. Each one of these kids took advantage of the scale of the matter and hid behind it to get a free trainer.
@PhantaJisto Its not poverty and its not an educational issue cuz most of these kids go to school, hence why they can do this over summer holidays. The point being that In my opinion trying to find an explanation or a reason is a complete waste of time. This is criminality in its clearest form, the only difference is that every single kid was under the impression that they wont get caught due to the scale of the matter..
@aasgp1 But you or I didn't go out in an opportunistic frame of mind and do the same, so there is something that is different. The key to solving and preventing this is finding out what the difference is. I'd personally put it down the morals and lessons they have been taught during their lives, a lot of this comes down to the educations system, in both the ways they are taught and who they are taught by. One school is not the same as another, one teacher is not the same as another
This kid needs to start realizing that he and he alone is responsible for his own life, that the world doesn't owe him or anyone else a living, that the vast majority of human beings in human history have managed to survive without government "schemes" and handouts and people telling them what to do and where to go and at what time. Start taking responsibility for yourselves and develop some self respect instead of casting yourselves as helpless children.
Well said dude, who ever you are! Really valid and factual statements given. I am not condeming for one second the riots but, cutting EMA, Connections and drastically increasing university tutions fees does not help the young society which will be the future of this country!!
I do not deny that terrible things have gone on that are inexcusable but the truth is that we need to take a hard look at ourselves as a society, the direction our leaders are taking us in and the example that these hypocrites and their big business cronies are setting for the youth.
Absolutely superb, well done sir! A big shame this hasn't been seen on the bbc news channel, wonder why? Also, all those who think that the young man is wrong, please note that Boris is actually humbled and does not have a reply.
i am sure the Boris reply was - well errr yes ummm i on one hand errr with the current errr no that is to say that ummm if i were to put it this way errrrrrrr
thank you young man for this lovely errr convesation, goodbye!
In reply to the comments about the guy who is filming this video.. About "why doesn't he speak properly".. etc
Think about it how many of us talk properly? What has talking properly got to do with anything? The amount of footballers who get interviewed after football matches and cant talk properly is pretty bad.. Talking properly is subjective and largely based on the area your from. I would say cockneys dont talk properly? Thats their language based on the environment they've grown in. Think
Possibly the next prime minister? This boy needs to be on sky news and BBC news! Share this video guys! People who sing on here become famous, get rich and are stupid. People Like this man Leon fearon (you can add him on Facebook) need to be seen and heard! Come on let's see what we can do! Get this man heard!
After speaking with Leon Fearon I have learned that his aim is to get this video on the national news (BBC/SKY). So all people that think this man has a point and would like to help him to achieve his goal, feel free to help. Thanks
I think that THIS IS the mentality of the Majourity of today's youths - They want to work!!! There's just No jobs!!! I am an adult and 12 of my friends have had 1 or both adult members of their household have lost their jobs 1 is a police officer, 3 work in schools, 1 worked in the council, and the others also in professional positions I'm not going to list all 12 - if there's no work then the ecomony Will suffer & looting will happen families can't starve & then the government lends money 2 ot
Very noble speech from the lad, but first he needs to really realise what is really happening in the world. I am sure that Boris (the funny looking fuck) knows what is going on.
I wasn't referring to resource wars or illegal wars as I like to call them. I was referring to the puppet masters that are really pulling the strings in the world, not numpty Politian’s or coalition governments.
I'm sure he understands! Intelligent people will put the dots together, this is part of a larger economic context that some fans of conspiracy theory and major economists like Celente, Keiser and others have been warning of for a while.
I'm currently trying to engage with the population to see what's behind their blind herd-like anger. It's all a bit of a diversion from the bigger picture!
I have spoken to many people over the last few days and one thing that is common with most is they are all asking for new laws, the return of national service etc...
I cannot for the life of me see how these will help the average law abiding citizen that wishes to live a peaceful life.
It will merely enslave and suffocate them further.
@youngaRLK So true i'm from Bradford people here got sentences of between 4 - 10 years why should these guys get away with community service and one of the got 1 day in jail. thats not even enough time to have a shit shower and a shave.
all that is being said is nether here nor there , truth of the matter is we are living in a capitalist society where every thing is geared to keep the rich ,rich and duck the rest me us, they expect to just dump the poor in council housing them being happy with the crums they leave behind. I st

@metalslugxBTB Judging by the comments on your page I'd say you were pretty much a poor excuse also, but that doesn't matter. What you do in your time doesn't concern me.

@metalslugxBTB people aren't born like this mate, they are created not just poor upbringing to blame, no sense of a future in any sort of way also fueled it.. who's to blame for creating such a place where people feel the need to tear it back down? oh lets starting thinking like you, it's out of senseless violence and criminality, don't compare the people of today to back then that's not relevant. if i was born back then in the same conditions i would go to war too and i'm sure they would

@solidsneak12 "who's to blame for creating such a place where people feel the need to tear it back down?"
The parents. The fact you equate life in an industrialized nation such as the UK shows your disconnect for the real world. Lack of opportunity? Do you have idea how much tax money goes into their education? Protesters are being slaughtered in Syria and the youth in the UK get thousands of dollars per year for their education. No sense of a future my ass... Go home kid.

The government were not bothered about the small businesses and people affected because the riots because the riots were not a protest against them. I'm sure if there was oil in the areas that were affected, the government would send in NATO.

@metalslugxBTB Yes your right it's the parents, now next step, why are the parents idiots? Are you going to pin this on an infinite trail of idiocy in several specific family trees or see how nurture HAS an attributing factor. Anyway the point is once you accept nurture as having an affect then the point is to find a way to nurture these people to their optimum state, or do you suggest a Nazi esq elimination of people that don't make certain social standards? Or prison, and will you pay the bill

@metalslugxBTB Because that would be incriminating evidence. The problem was no-one listened to them in the first place, or they listened and disregarded their statements as stupid or inferior. Like right now I disagree with what your saying but I don't think your an idiot you just have had a different upbringing with different understandings, morals, hygiene standards, etc.

First things first the capitols really aren't necessary anymore, shouting really isn't needed on the internet and I UNDERSTAND why and that you are angry (Because you care about people too), just like I UNDERSTAND why they are angry (Because they feel they're being cheated) WHETHER either appears true to either perspective, or appears to justify the behavior to either. <This is the key to the argument here
outliveyouall 6 months ago
Also this is politics to begin with because it's based around law. It's also based around the police and their treatment of people (In relation to the shooting matter). It's also based around politics because it's the education system, which is controlled by politics. Also it's politics because it's financial status of people in some cases (Though not all as we've seen with the rich child criminal, though don't start saying because of one case that rules out all others)
outliveyouall 6 months ago
@metalslugxBTB : also you have still failed to state why you think that nurture has no attributing factor to the morals, knowledge, and personality of a child? Obviously DNA has a factor but you're not seriously telling me a person will always be the same no matter what situations happen during their lives? The amount of studies done with twins proves that

How are you claiming there isn't a correlation between not knowing something and being an idiot as far as the terms definition goes? This isn't me calling you an idiot for I don't know you but normally an idiot is someone who doesn't know something.
Also if you don't know why on what grounds are you throwing out that "scum" can't be nurtured? If you can nurture ethics why can't you nurture scum?

@PhantaJisto The way u put it is actually pretty difficult to understand, but it doesnt need to be.. u see this isnt a very complicated matter.

aasgp1 6 months ago
@PhantaJisto Its not poverty and its not an educational issue cuz most of these kids go to school, hence why they can do this over summer holidays. The point being that In my opinion trying to find an explanation or a reason is a complete waste of time. This is criminality in its clearest form, the only difference is that every single kid was under the impression that they wont get caught due to the scale of the matter..
aasgp1 6 months ago
@aasgp1 But you or I didn't go out in an opportunistic frame of mind and do the same, so there is something that is different. The key to solving and preventing this is finding out what the difference is. I'd personally put it down the morals and lessons they have been taught during their lives, a lot of this comes down to the educations system, in both the ways they are taught and who they are taught by. One school is not the same as another, one teacher is not the same as another
