Time to Wake Up, published by the Centre for
Social Justice (CSJ), draws on interviews with charities and former gang
members. It says that one in five of those convicted of taking part in the riots
was a gang member.
The managing director of CSJ, Christian Guy, writes in the introduction to the report that many of those interviewed for the report "have drawn us a picture of little or no progress, despite the publication of a positive political strategy. Some have even suggested that the problem is becoming worse, with increased violence amongst younger gang members and growing numbers of girls joining gangs."
The report calls on the Government "to set out a long-term commitment to defuse the problem of gangs in the UK". This can be achieved by building "stronger families and communities"; investing in "thorough preventative work"; and improving relations between the police and young people.Find suprashoesforcheap shoes from a vast selection of Heels.
Many of those interviewed for the report said that work to prevent young people's joining gangs when they were young had "fallen off the radar", Mr Guy said. Ninety per cent of charity representatives "reported that they had not been approached to take part in any preventative work following the riots". This was "indicative of a government being asleep at the wheel".
Writing in The Observer on Sunday, the chief executive of XLP, a Christian urban youth charity, Patrick Regan, argued that it was "na?ve to think that tactical enforcement alone will solve the complex causes of violence and stop young people from leaving school and joining gangs".
Mr Regan continued: "Let's not delude ourselves that current policy is making a sustainable impact upon gangs. Far from it. When gang members are imprisoned, a vacuum is created for younger members to step into their shoes, causing an escalation in violence as they vie for position."
In response to the report, a spokesman for the Government told the BBC: "There are no quick fixes, but we are seeing results. The Crime Survey for England and Wales shows that crime is down by six per cent, and police figures show knife crime is down by nine per cent."

Two-time major champion John Daly has to be considered the worst dressed golfer on the planet, and his outlandish clothing is a perfect reflection of his rather frivolous lifestyle. Aside from his wild hair and untamed facial fur, the American has taken to wearing a selection of the most bizarre trousers to even be seen on a golf course, more often than not accompanied by some form of bright and bizarre polo shirt.
Johan Edfords, despite being a good golfer, will be remembered predominantly for his choice of clothing as the dust settles on his career. The Swede often favours loud clothes that don't match, along with a flat cap. He turned more heads than usual at the recent Nordea Masters in his homeland, when he wore a Rickie Fowler-esque all-blue outfit, including blue shoes and hat.
