Get real Joe ... Much of the culture amongst gangs is driven by organised crime which is far more lucritive than any job these lads are likely to be able to get and keep and it has nothing whatsoever to do with immigration.Give the kids training. A future , a job to be proud of. Stop importing workers - train our own youth up.

It's about grass roots issues such as core values and beliefs, good parenting, good core education, the need for a mature justice system and well resourced law enforcement ... More police on the streets and less speed cameras would be a damn good start here ... A bouyant economy with opportunuties for young people driven by links between education and business etc etc.
You've got it all wrong MW (as usual). Society has changed. The types that are breeding are the chavs, the have-nots, the no-hopers. Intelligent couples don't seem to have children these days, maybe one or two kids at most. The chavs use kids as a tool to climb the social housing ladder and get benefits. Pop out a few sprogs and get the rewards. Many parents have never had a job in their lives. Pigs breed pigs and in 15 years time those little piglets have piglets of their own. The country is being populated by chavs, who become feral youth and cause mayhem in a world they are too stupid to contribute to and a world that they know doesn't want them. The days of the factory handle puller and box packer they would have become in olden days has gone. We have a whole raft of under educated youth that society has no use for. Sad really.
Abridged but gives the general idea ...I remember something about being able to carry a penknife if its blade was less than 3 inches long, has this changed? Can anyone point to the legislation that says so..
