London riots sky news (2011 contemporary):
- Youth claim that they act in a deviant way breaking the law due to lack of wealth and opportunities, wealth often presented as important to youth, however not in this is England as it seems more about having fun and a good time
- comparison to young apprentice youths, they have an opportunity where as riot males claim that they can't even get a job.
- Similarly to youths of this is England the young males don't have any wealth as they say 'look at the flats they don't care about us', youths of young apprentice on other hand staying in nice big house, roles royce car etc.
- Make jokes out of the crimes they have committed 'I'm watching my new plasma screen', show no remorse, carelessness, similar to youths in this is England as they vandalise an abandoned building
