His ends where no one owns any property and are looked after by hard working tax payers. They are man children and we are their parents. We give them pocket money to buy their cider. Bottom feeders.
It's so cringey when they go around the group saying "he's been in jail, he's been in jail" etc etc and one guy holds his hand up saying "I've been in jail 5 times" with a stupid big grin on his face like its something to be so proud of. Absolute reprobates.
Yeah theyre pricks but that life is how they were raised and all theyve ever known. For that to change their needs to be more robust social safety nets and public services

John Jones That's one lost and insecure girl. I cracked up when his little mate claimed she said 'seeing him behind bars makes me love him even more'. WTF??
It's not that simple when you don't have any structure, easy to denounce such things, but not easy to deal with in everiday life, easy to criticize people when you don't know the all story
But for real they should just get the bullet they are fucked, cant be fixed lil pussys like them think they are boss while in a group but alone they wil get fucked up by any one, shits like that shouldent be allowed to get kids thats how you keep getting criminal low life scum like those pussys. Id love to beat 1 of those fuckers up so they know what wil happen if u fuck with some 1 who can do something back. Not just target people who cant defend them slefs wich they always go against.
Gotta love how the “olders” of the group said they were trying to keep them from going down the wrong path but give them alcohol, drugs and fight infront of them, perfect role models...
Used to live in an estate with people like this, kept myself to myself, kept out of trouble, got no respect from anyone because I didn't want to waste like them. Got myself a good life, moved county, went back recently to check on some family and the old crews still there being wasters, no life, no prospects, the only thing that's changed is they've got less teeth.
Moving country was likely the ticket, there's so little hope in England unlike back when they had an Empire and before we started calling the shots and now y'all living like in this video...
The idea that that kid's horizons don't reach any further than the edge of the boring little provincial town he was born in ("there's nothing for me outside Abingdon") is quite profoundly depressing. Hearing him bang on about his "ends" and how he looks after them like he's some badass inner city gangster while he's out on bail for robbing the local corner shop is pretty funny, but also deeply sad. What a bunch of muppets.
I live in Abingdon, there's no need to be like this here nor anywhere else in the UK tbh. Its bad Parenting, bad Education and bad morals. There's plenty of work round here, plenty to do. Its just excuses. I'm a bit annoyed that Vice stimulated behaviour in Saxton Road. 90% of people that live there are good hard working folk.

Ben Kemp that’s not really gaslighting. That’s just more people who are so used to physical violence that threatening to kill someone or hitting them for getting mouthy is just normal. These people are the British version of trailer park trash

The fact that Jemma thinks it's okay to bring someone round her young children that she openly admits is violent and STABS people is so unbelievably worrying, disgusting, and selfish. One of your jobs as a mother is to protect your children from harm and she's just delivering harm and trauma straight to them. The inability to protect your children from harm is literally child abuse and I hope those kids were taken from her to be cared for by someone who actually cares for their wellbeing.
With all the crazy things going on throughout the world the children today are the truest victims it is so sad and it breaks my heart to see what this world has become where our society has gone most assuredly down the wrong road! so sad!
Ashley Cooper or "Coopz" was jailed for three years in 2015 for threats with a knife, and then was jailed again in 2021 for attacking his mum's ex partner.
Why does every chav gangster wannabe have a Staffy? It's like they come out of prison and someone goes, "Here you are - a 4 pack of Strongbow and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Now go and buy a hoodie and some weed and you're all set to go..."
"more people are too scared to go to jail, they look at situation and they'd rather walk away and I think thats wrong". If that isn't the most stupid statement i've heard all year and its the end of November. Sigh
And look where that attitudes got him. Couple of years ago him and a friend were hunting down a couple of dealers and his friend got shot in the head and killed
People fear spiders and clowns and the dark, but damn this terrifies me. Not the people, the violence or the drugs, but the knowledge of having no future. I would slowly go insane if I knew that for the rest of my life I would be in a rut, doing the same thing with little to no chance of anything changing.
Most of the people like that do have choices though, it's just harder to break out and succeed than it is for most people. The American version of these people usually have to either work really hard in school to get a scholarship or join the military. It's harder then it is for the average joe growing up in a shitty neighborehood or a broke city, but its doable. The problem is they fall in with gangs or they just give up without ever having tried to get out of their poor ass town.
its called working for a living, the more you do it in the same field, the more money (sometimes) you make, its the grown ups reality, unless you want to be paid peanuts forever because you change career paths every 6 months?
@@M____1878 you never know, Michelle Obama grew up on O'Block. Same place as Chief Keef and about 15 of his homies that have died to gun violence.

It's sad to say but not everyone who gets done for something ends up turning into a saint, ofc thats what the media wants us and them to see, that it is possible to break out of this lifestyle but yeah you can tell from this alone they're in very deep especially for their ages..
In my opinion the UK has the worst delinquent culture in the world. The ego and pride is way out there. The way some of the youth criminals kill people is sickening from the stories I heard of people living there. It starts with alcohol, weed and sex at a young age mixed in with peer pressure and they grow up only looking for instant gratification. So stealing comes natural to them. The idea of sitting down and preparing for a future becomes impossible for them.
Astro Bro Maybe in violence and crime but in america youth criminals commit crimes to get money or revenge. Not like this senseless delinquent behavior in the UK where if someone dares you to do something you have to do it.
Can't say much about the UK, however I've heard some horrific crime stories concerning the Y generation being out of control. Canada is very fortunate.
william dezwijger Very good point. A man who doesn't work will have all sorts of problems. If you are busy with work there is no time for your mind to dwell on things.
***** No I meant self gratification with things that make them happy. I'm not talking about necessities of life with a roof over their heads. There aren't enough jobs for people to support themselves so a free home is vital.
One day young men like this grow up, they're 40 yrs old and their "mates" are no where to be found. They have to work at a low paying hard working job, bc of their record. And they realize how much they screwed up and wasted their life. This is the bottom of society....and it's happening here In America as well
@@MissBenzo I was raised without a father and by an uneducated teenager mother, and yet I never had problems with the law. This prejudice towards single mothers is unnecessary
@@LG-pd2eg I bet you have a pretty great mom then! The problem lies in those mothers who might not be as great and without a partner to help them out it could easily go wrong. Think of it in the sense that a unicycle is harder to use than a bike. Studies have shown time and time again that without a dad the risk of a child developing behavioral problems increases, much like choosing to take a unicycle to work increases the risk of you falling flat on the pavement. It's not a guarantee but an increased risk. The "prejudice" is statistically warranted.
I gonna say this but mass migration goes hand in hand with Crime in Britain. All the white geezers are talking like black people because they have raised in sh*tty council blocks where they stacked from birth with non whites.
Good documentary. I really liked the way you shown the shop owners opinion followed by the racist opinions of those you’ve been documenting… Really goes to show a lot when you think about it. It’s sad, and you done a brilliant job at emphasising this.. A very broken England and 8 years later it’s much worse too
That relationship is how people end up getting murdered. Yeah, you can control him...for now. All it takes is that one time he's pushed over the edge and all of a sudden he's killed the missus, the kids and then shot himself in the head. It boggles my mind that people are so blinded by feelings they'd actively seek to be in harm's way. At some point you need to look out for yourself and your kids, and it's incredibly selfish to expect a person to change who they are for you.
I find it unbelievable to see beautiful sweet girls stick by a violent, drunk, criminal with no prospects who pulls a knife on them and says they are going to kill them when there are tonnes of guys out there that would consider themselves lucky to have someone like that, some kids and big group of mates.
I feel really sorry for these guys. They don't understand how incredibly stupid they are. I don't blame them, this is their life, most of their parents probably acted the same way. They need to learn a thing or two about life, perhaps a trip outside their protective grounds would do them good

I know someone like Coopz with similar anger problems and stuff, and the way he handles his anger is he takes it out on himself instead of others (punching walls etc..) and because he hurts himself he realizes what he is doing quicker and calms down quicker, he then just suffers from bruised and cut knuckles instead of prison sentences and injured peeps.
Because English isnt my mother tongue and there werent subtitles at all i didnt understand all the things that were said but i really like the shape and making of this vice report and how the environment and their daily life is represented with the melancholic background music making the atmosphere even more exciting :D

I know Ali from Reading Youth Offenders back in 2006 and he was a good lad, always polite and personable never any trouble towards prisoners or staff. People call these lads names but end of the day when this was filmed they’re were all young guys been in prison since 14 etc when should be getting their GCSES. Even they admit on camera what they do is out of stupidity due to alcohol but without guidance it’s hard to break the cycle. Not much going for young ostracised men in the UK either, no leg ups or help. I hope they’ve all grown out of it now a decade on and that they’re of value to society.
So let me get this straight: You go out and do nothing your entire youth. You drink, smoke and do drugs. You proudly go to jail. You think jail is fine. Your "cool" hangout place is several fences between houses. Then comes a pretty looking girlfriend having already two kids from different dads at young age. She is convincingly telling us he is ready to be dad and he is so mature and they are perfect for each other. Yeah he stabs people from time to time and he steals and stuff but he is having such a strong bond with her daughters and they never split. Well they do split because he is going to jail but he is still so mature. I've watched this documentary several times and I literally had screaming brain cells leaving my head through my ears.
I think it's easy to criticise these kids (and I completely understand why) but the harder question is what can we do to stop people living like this? You do not just turn out like these kids did for no reason.
Good question - I'd lay money that if you looked at these kids' backgrounds, there is a lot of personal and social dysfunction, their parents and all the adults around them are probably unemployerd or underemployed, not well educated and, in essense, their "normal" is an environment that's completely dysfunctional. Personally I think its a fool's hope to think they are going to start making better decisions themselves, and I don't think all the social workers in the world can gently nudge them hard enough back in the right direction. The problem isn't just that they are dysfucntional, its that they are actively hostile to the idea of changing. Ad the thing is, as far as I can tell, between social welfare and petty crime, they are able to afford a "good enough" lifestyle, I mean at 5:56 there are 3 of them sitting in a clean living room on a leather sofa and he's tellig us he owns 4 dogs, so its not Victorian slums or anything. Strange as it may soud, this might just be the price you pay for the fact that overall, the quality of life for everyone has continually risen for many years, now even abject poverty in the UK has smartphones and netflix included.
They talk all the time but don't really say anything. Quite sad actually. And that Gemma girl think she's 19 or 20? Two kids from 2 different dads at that age. Don't think that's going somewhere good soon

Why does every chav gangster wannabe have a Staffy?
It's like they come out of prison and someone goes, "Here you are - a 4 pack of Strongbow and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Now go and buy a hoodie and some weed and you're all set to go..."
"more people are too scared to go to jail, they look at situation and they'd rather walk away and I think thats wrong". If that isn't the most stupid statement i've heard all year and its the end of November. Sigh
I think what he meant is that people are pussies
And look where that attitudes got him. Couple of years ago him and a friend were hunting down a couple of dealers and his friend got shot in the head and killed
Vice, this was your peak in what you did in journalism. Please come back to it!!
People fear spiders and clowns and the dark, but damn this terrifies me. Not the people, the violence or the drugs, but the knowledge of having no future. I would slowly go insane if I knew that for the rest of my life I would be in a rut, doing the same thing with little to no chance of anything changing.
Joe Caswell Exactly how I'd feel. Spot on.
and that's what everyone seems to miss... even the fucking documentary seemed to skip over it ffs
Most of the people like that do have choices though, it's just harder to break out and succeed than it is for most people. The American version of these people usually have to either work really hard in school to get a scholarship or join the military. It's harder then it is for the average joe growing up in a shitty neighborehood or a broke city, but its doable. The problem is they fall in with gangs or they just give up without ever having tried to get out of their poor ass town.
its called working for a living, the more you do it in the same field, the more money (sometimes) you make, its the grown ups reality, unless you want to be paid peanuts forever because you change career paths every 6 months?
get an education nowadays guarantees only debt, nothing more.

I'd be really interested in seeing a follow up 'where are they now' documentary. Did any of these young men ever break out of this lifestyle?

@@M____1878 you never know, Michelle Obama grew up on O'Block. Same place as Chief Keef and about 15 of his homies that have died to gun violence. Its possible but the lack of parenting and direction these kids had/have I wouldn't be surprised if not much has changed.. It's sad to say but not everyone who gets done for something ends up turning into a saint, ofc thats what the media wants us and them to see, that it is possible to break out of this lifestyle but yeah you can tell from this alone they're in very deep especially for their ages..
Can't believe they just laugh at the concept of robbing someone of their own property which they've worked hard for. Literally the scum of society
"You can only dream and hope..." - No, you can make good decision, distance yourself from those who don't and work hard for something

In my opinion the UK has the worst delinquent culture in the world. The ego and pride is way out there. The way some of the youth criminals kill people is sickening from the stories I heard of people living there. It starts with alcohol, weed and sex at a young age mixed in with peer pressure and they grow up only looking for instant gratification. So stealing comes natural to them. The idea of sitting down and preparing for a future becomes impossible for them.
Astro Bro Maybe in violence and crime but in america youth criminals commit crimes to get money or revenge. Not like this senseless delinquent behavior in the UK where if someone dares you to do something you have to do it.
Astro Bro and the ghettos in America are nothing compared to the ghettos in the Caribbean and South America, so whats your point?
Can't say much about the UK, however I've heard some horrific crime stories concerning the Y generation being out of control. Canada is very fortunate.
william dezwijger Very good point. A man who doesn't work will have all sorts of problems. If you are busy with work there is no time for your mind to dwell on things.
***** No I meant self gratification with things that make them happy. I'm not talking about necessities of life with a roof over their heads. There aren't enough jobs for people to support themselves so a free home is vital.
One day young men like this grow up, they're 40 yrs old and their "mates" are no where to be found. They have to work at a low paying hard working job, bc of their record. And they realize how much they screwed up and wasted their life. This is the bottom of society....and it's happening here In America as well
In the US the progressive solution is to not prosecute them.
Sounds like my lifestyle. The only difference is that I've gone travelling instead of prison!!
Well said. Pretty much bang on
No role models, they look up to each other which is a vicious cycle
I bet most if not all of them don't have a father and this is the problem
And you can bet most of them were raised by teenage uneducated mothers...
@@MissBenzo I was raised without a father and by an uneducated teenager mother, and yet I never had problems with the law.
This prejudice towards single mothers is unnecessary
Their mother was dumb enough to fuck losers - that is the problem, and after that, no condom. after that, no abort.
@@socrates_the_great6209 Lol
@@LG-pd2eg I bet you have a pretty great mom then! The problem lies in those mothers who might not be as great and without a partner to help them out it could easily go wrong. Think of it in the sense that a unicycle is harder to use than a bike. Studies have shown time and time again that without a dad the risk of a child developing behavioral problems increases, much like choosing to take a unicycle to work increases the risk of you falling flat on the pavement. It's not a guarantee but an increased risk. The "prejudice" is statistically warranted.
This shows that no matter what the race, if you have no aspirations or opportunities, you'll forever be in this vicious cycle
I gonna say this but mass migration goes hand in hand with Crime in Britain. All the white geezers are talking like black people because they have raised in sh*tty council blocks where they stacked from birth with non whites.
Good documentary. I really liked the way you shown the shop owners opinion followed by the racist opinions of those you’ve been documenting… Really goes to show a lot when you think about it. It’s sad, and you done a brilliant job at emphasising this.. A very broken England and 8 years later it’s much worse too
That relationship is how people end up getting murdered.
Yeah, you can control him...for now. All it takes is that one time he's pushed over the edge and all of a sudden he's killed the missus, the kids and then shot himself in the head. It boggles my mind that people are so blinded by feelings they'd actively seek to be in harm's way. At some point you need to look out for yourself and your kids, and it's incredibly selfish to expect a person to change who they are for you.
I find it unbelievable to see beautiful sweet girls stick by a violent, drunk, criminal with no prospects who pulls a knife on them and says they are going to kill them when there are tonnes of guys out there that would consider themselves lucky to have someone like that, some kids and big group of mates.

I feel really sorry for these guys. They don't understand how incredibly stupid they are. I don't blame them, this is their life, most of their parents probably acted the same way. They need to learn a thing or two about life, perhaps a trip outside their protective grounds would do them good

A lil off topic but that intro is the most soothing/peaceful thing I've ever heard and seen
I know someone like Coopz with similar anger problems and stuff, and the way he handles his anger is he takes it out on himself instead of others (punching walls etc..) and because he hurts himself he realizes what he is doing quicker and calms down quicker, he then just suffers from bruised and cut knuckles instead of prison sentences and injured peeps.

I know Ali from Reading Youth Offenders back in 2006 and he was a good lad, always polite and personable never any trouble towards prisoners or staff. People call these lads names but end of the day when this was filmed they’re were all young guys been in prison since 14 etc when should be getting their GCSES. Even they admit on camera what they do is out of stupidity due to alcohol but without guidance it’s hard to break the cycle. Not much going for young ostracised men in the UK either, no leg ups or help. I hope they’ve all grown out of it now a decade on and that they’re of value to society.

"I was lucky I had a controlling relationship that kept me away from it all" 🤔
So let me get this straight: You go out and do nothing your entire youth. You drink, smoke and do drugs. You proudly go to jail. You think jail is fine. Your "cool" hangout place is several fences between houses. Then comes a pretty looking girlfriend having already two kids from different dads at young age. She is convincingly telling us he is ready to be dad and he is so mature and they are perfect for each other. Yeah he stabs people from time to time and he steals and stuff but he is having such a strong bond with her daughters and they never split. Well they do split because he is going to jail but he is still so mature. I've watched this documentary several times and I literally had screaming brain cells leaving my head through my ears.
This is like the British version of Trailer Park Boys.
Sundiata Nkrumah Only difference is these boys have no love for their community... And they’re certainly not funny in a feel good way lol
wearing their crimes like Medals, something needs to change, this is a social problem that successive Governments have failed at.
I think it's easy to criticise these kids (and I completely understand why) but the harder question is what can we do to stop people living like this? You do not just turn out like these kids did for no reason.
An intelligent person in this comment section, no way.
Good question - I'd lay money that if you looked at these kids' backgrounds, there is a lot of personal and social dysfunction, their parents and all the adults around them are probably unemployerd or underemployed, not well educated and, in essense, their "normal" is an environment that's completely dysfunctional. Personally I think its a fool's hope to think they are going to start making better decisions themselves, and I don't think all the social workers in the world can gently nudge them hard enough back in the right direction. The problem isn't just that they are dysfucntional, its that they are actively hostile to the idea of changing.
Ad the thing is, as far as I can tell, between social welfare and petty crime, they are able to afford a "good enough" lifestyle, I mean at 5:56 there are 3 of them sitting in a clean living room on a leather sofa and he's tellig us he owns 4 dogs, so its not Victorian slums or anything. Strange as it may soud, this might just be the price you pay for the fact that overall, the quality of life for everyone has continually risen for many years, now even abject poverty in the UK has smartphones and netflix included.
Drugs have created this system
It’s a cycle. Parents were probably no hopers on the dole and that’s the way the kids grow up unless they find a way to pull themselves out of it.
There's choices to make, and they made all the shitty ones.
Society should hold its hand up to this and these guys should take some individual responsibility too.
i love the style of this video and the speakers voice
I like the way he says he can only hope that he’ll have a nice house but does nothing to get money or get a job
