The media has called young people of Britain hoodies, thugs, even animals. Yet fewer than 1 in 10 articles about us actually quotes anything we say or any good we do. It's not right. It's not fair. And it's why the RNLI wants editors around the UK to stop and watch this story happen as it unfolds...

Every month Britain's top young bloggers (and me) are going to set you a challenge - to use your influence and ingenuity to raise money in a way no other generation ever has before... in ways that'll make the headlines! (Check out the first challenge over there on the right)

And all for a worthy cause. The youth of Britain are going to launch a lifeboat. Month by month, we'll have the chance not only to fund it, but name it, put cameras on it and follow it online. So when the shout goes up, RNLI lifesavers will have what they need to brave the seas and save lives in danger.

At last, a story that'll change the way they think about us. For good.

Like Taztallica I also was mugged by 6 chavs outside tesco a few months back, stole my phone and wallet then gave me a few punches! =[

It's actully scary if you go outside alone, you don't know if someones there who's going to mug you, kidnap you or actully rape or kill you. It's disgusting how adults back up there children when they have been caught stealing something or been in a fight, I think children who have bad parents are going to do the same. Many mums and dads who have been brought up badly are taking it out on there kids, and the cycle goes round and round.

I agree. Nothing has been done to help all of these kids that grow up watching their mom and dads do drugs, smoke and drink; it's like they're being brainwashed, it's all they know so they do it. Then there's peer-pressure, which causes almost half of the drug users to become addicts.
Most of the knife users, however, never think that they'll use their knife just because they have one; they think they're just wearing one for self-defense, but you'll be amazed at what doesn't make the news. The amount of people that carry a knife and end up using it for their own prosperity, it's fucking disgusting, excuse my language...

ill put it this way . a life boat won't make a shread of difference to the blades on the streets , the violence , the lack of respect for youth and/or by them .
the problem is modern society it self , these children feel irrelavent , unimportant , insignificant and in todays world they are , they are nothing more than a sysptom of the same problem , this world is a seriously messed up place . im personally suprised that so few end up dead .
but any way it will just get worse .....
at least you and your friends will have a life boat to sail away on , when the blood bath starts in the streets ...
and yes most young people are little more than animals these days .... some stab and kill , some binge drink , some get pregnant and push prams ......... all syptoms of the same social disease .
it will all happen , hell ware a stab vest for all i care lol .....

All of you people that think all of us kids are bad are just stereotypical idiots. Just because one out of, say, every hundred of todays youth does something bad, doesn't mean we're [i][b]all[/i][/b] like that. (In case that code doesn't work - it says all). I have to say that I'm all up for this, except for the fact I really do not own anything made by apple, and my sister would never in a million years let me touch her ipod because I'd probably break it xD.
And SecretTrollAccount, knives are what cause most of the 'incidents', for want of a better word, and I've personally seen the damage they can do.

Youth of today are evil. What we need is child labour back, that and brutal religous oppression to crush thier pitiful dreams and aspiriations early, so early they demand SOMA.

Also knives are great, we need moar knives and less youth. See how that works out? Ya great plan amirite.

seems like everyones a bad, iv'e been assaulted for skateboarding on my local tesco, iv'e been mugged by twats with jobs and youth clubs to go to, giving them something to do is pointless, they still love the thrill on getting someone in their large numbers. Whats the point in giving them a lifeboat? really? you all need to stop being ignorant, start hitting back, works for me
