The Violent Boom In Asian Gangs Battling Over London | Gangs Of Britain | Absolute Crime

- Brothers Gary and Martin Kemp turn their attentions to Britain's capital. London has always had criminals. The biggest city in Britain is like a magnet to those wanting to make a bob or two - even if that means taking the law into their own hands. Since the 1900's as many as 70 gangs have fought it out on London streets. The Second World War put pay to many of them but there was one vicious East End gang that kept alive even up to the 1960's though their origins went right back to the 19th century. Gary investigates the infamous Watney Streeters gang. A hundred years later a new wave of Asian immigrants had arrived in London. To protect themselves they formed gangs but it wasn't long before protection turned instead to extortion and then massive drug smuggling. Martin looks into the ruthless and dreaded Toot Nung gang from Southall, West London.

Well presented and informative. Thank you Kemp brothers.
Thanks for this, well documented and explained history of London's gangs and crime.
Great to see the Kemp brothers again on our screens and the other experts came across as very well informed as also.
More of this type of documentary please!
Great to see the kemp brothers back on our screens? Are you okay?
@@user-go6qh4ks2lIt’s his opinion, it’s called free speech. Are you ok?
Free speech for good thing only
🙄🤮
He mentioned so many actual... gangs.. I didn't even know that London had THIS many gangs !!! The Japanese ones, the Jewish ones as well.... Now, that is indeed surprising. Wow.... I can see why they did East Enders... actually...
The ham acting in this introduction is hilarious. Reminds me of the Ricky Gervais and Ross Kemp comedy sketch in the show 'Extras' where Kemp acts tough to impress.
Top class documentary and well presented by the Kemp boys ,more please ❤❤❤
I've seen gangs made up of people from all kinds of racial backgrounds that you might think wouldn't normally associate, brought together under one common cause, crime. A lot of young people are recruited into gangs in schools and colleges. The emphasis should be on preventing our young people from joining gangs in the first place.
Thanks to organizations like the Italian Mafia and the Krays etc, gang life has been 'romanticised' in order to appeal to young people. A bit like how if you ask someone today what first comes to mind when you say the word 'pirate'. They will come back with some swashbuckling heart throb from a Hollywood movie. They have NO idea how violent and bloody old world piracy actually was. I'd try sending journalists and headteachers etc into prisons and getting prisoners who were also once gang members, to tell their stories about the reality of gang life on video, and urge young people NOT to join gangs. This would also give them the chance to express their remorse and make up, if only a little, for what they have done.
These videos could then be shown to older school year groups as part of PHSE studies. More intervention at that stage might prevent them from joining gangs, and in turn, will make them better future parents and prevent their children from doing so too, so on so forth.
Prevention is better than cure, as you've said. The way to do this is by creating a culture of security/ good self-esteem and hope via education and job opportunities in society, until then crime will often win over delicate young souls.
I smell turd 🤡🦍✊
Penal system doesn't seem to be very harsh as it is in Asia which deters crime much better it seems.
Indians are far far far better educated and wealthy than White Brits.
I'd rather of been a pirate than press ganged into the royal navy ( I'm a loyalist too) but pirates all have a say the navy you was just used and abused however a very very good comment that - so very true 👍
That dude talked so fast that I had no time to catch up my breath 😂

Perfect documentary for a relaxed Monday evening 😊
South Asian gangs might be powerful in Southall, where almost everybody is South Asian. They can push around their own people, but everywhere else in London they have never really made much of an impact.
More prevalent up north where lots of Pakistanis but there are also ethnic gangs.
London has strong Turkish drugs gangs. They have Essex white boy gangs etc etc
Check my TH-cam channel, I have a documentary about a Bangladeshi gang who had fights with racist white people in east London, South Asian gangs were active in most areas of East London and fought racists and then got involved in crime later on.
Quite true, I don't think they have the same level of street credibility as Jamaicans for example

@@Blissblizzard lol . So what are you really saying ?
Tory & Labour are to blame for this terrible mess.
Those who own parliament, politicians, the royal family and banking establishment you mean.
Why don’t you read up about the Opium Wars to understand who really created this mess.
The British elite did not a party. If you think people are going to vote reform think again. You're in a dream world. Tice rejected Christianity for reform a few months back 30 to 40 million people 46 per cent of uk in the last census, declared themselves Christian. Reform has rejected nearly 2000 years of British culture. So much for supporting British values.
That bloke trying to excuse the gangs and blaming it on "racists".
What a cope 😂😂
Racist skin heads was the first gang and people got together to defend against them that's why
That’s how the gangs started. It’s when the racism died down they began to victimise their own communities.
You clearly have no knowledge of the history of racism in Southall do you ? Maybe read up about it, and you may get a little education on reality
@@shsh-he5qg ah, you're one of those, aren't you? You will blame historic racism for the any poor choices made by people.
The poor choice was having these people in the UK FULL STOP@@joelhall5124
Interesting upload. There was a band ad on before this, I Wish You Were Dead. Great song, if you're reading this! I tend to watch the ads, sometimes good information. If only TH-cam would enable more information about the adverts! Please!

Worst of all we have a paki prime minister a Asian mayor decades ago there would of been uproar the prime minister of this country needs to be WHITE

About 30 years to late making this, we are talking millions a year from drug dealing- Whitechapel ( in 1990) I knew smack dealers who had 3 cars driving around 24/7 ( by day driggies shoplifting by night the hookers/ working girls from Shoreditch Whitechapel all round brick lane; were talking 3 phones with sequential numbers that was ringing non stop- easy selling a few ounces a day of both ( smack & crack) the working girls ( what 150 of them) would spend 300-400 a night EASY - we're talking serious money & very serious violence- they had a car hire company that the drivers would use & this was also how they was laundering the money, having 30 cars -high end range rovers Audi Q8s that they would allow the gangs to use free ( ferrari & 911S Rolls Royce the higher end the more they was laundering ) as the cars was never hired but shared for free & tge miney from the drug dealing was going through this business- this is just the one I happened to know a whole load about but we're talking millions- in fact it's just got worse, certain areas you stand on a street & within 19 mins you'll be offered drugs ( this is what caused the violence-
6 years ago I was doing a day shift on a film unit as security, round mile end. I got chatting to a down and out. He told me that about 2 weeks previously the cops caught a gang of 42 people in one organisation, shutting down the phone line they were running. He said they were all are east Asian
@@jazztheglass6139 oh yes it's HUGE & runs like a Swiss watch- the police take out 42 people ( thats just 1 of many ) that next night not 8 hrs later tgey have 3 new drivers per 8hr shift- new phones & its back running again- that Area makes the drug abuse / prostitution problem in soho look silly- talking millions literally 🙄
Sounds like the lot from brick lane.
@@anewdayali2538 that's them 👌
@@jazztheglass6139 All Bangladeshi if its mile end
these kemp brothers act like they are top criminal practitioners themselves. with there "jack the lad" delivery and pseudo menacing expressions. as far as i know there claim to fame extends no further than pop music and acting. the closest they came to being "criminals" seems to be their portrayal of the kray twins 34 years ago. i find them comical.
Holiday Season You mean Christmas that spoilt a Great Presentation.
The same ones that merged Christmas with Ramadan and Chanuka are the same ones that brought IN that crime into White areas
As long as the gap between the rich and the poor keep widening world wide, this is what we are going to get. The wider the gap, the worse the problems are going to be…
The actual problem is open borders and left wing politics allowing everybody into the countries. All of Europe and by now even the US learns this lesson the hard way. Within a decade Sweden turned from the most peaceful european country into a total hell hole because the left-wing politicians decided it would be a great idea to import countless muslims and africans. Same in France, Germany, Italy, the UK, everywhere and they all brought their gang culture (and homophobia, sexism, racism, antisemitism and pedophilia) with them.
And leftists wonder how it could be that way, while ignorant fools blame it on money, lol.
@@ShadowAngel606lol it’s the right you idiots can’t see it lol
This video is quite refreshing to watch because it was Britain that used to export violence and crimes to other countries.

You used the name Khan. That isn't a HINDU NAME.
Out of the whole documentary, you just wanted to hear the name Mohammed didn't you? Be honest.
Is not ? Maybe is Mongolian? Or Pakistan ? Yet, alot of Indian use Khan
The original Khan are Mongolian yes

@@Moodboard39only muslims in India use Khan as surname
Heroin decimated British youth throughout the seventies and on. Martin Kemp is right to say it’s as bad as ever. But Indian people are not the consumers in any great number. Heroin is one reason Britain was ethnically cleansed, but no one will mention that. You can see the results by walking down any street in Britain now. Interestingly, scourges found around the world, like crystal meth and fentanyl are not found in Britain like they are in America or the far east. Is that because we have a more recent population who protect the traditional drug of the South Asia?
Indians are far far far better educated and wealthy than White Brits.
That is so ironic given that Brits were the ones who pursued and benefited from the Opium trade that still impacts Afghanistan and Myanmar, not to mention HK history. It's poetic in a way.
Should be more specific. These are South Asians.
I can tell you're not from the UK.
I dont know any country called South Asia
@@petepipee6751 I don't know any country called Europe either, yet British people are still European. Country and continent aren't mutually exclusive you know.
By that logic Pakistanis who live in Uk are Brits. arnt they?

Great not grate.
Not Asian, that’s disingenuous towards Chinese, Koreans, Thais etc. they are Pakistani, say it like it is.
Not only Pakistanis, also Indian subcontinent,Bangladeshi, Sri Lankans.
Agree
What Americans call South Asians (as opposed to East Asians). Perhaps we should use those categories?
People from Indian subcontinent are also Asian.
It was about Indians (Sikhs and Hindus) Not Pakistanis (Muslims) you fool.
How old is this doc?
2013
It's about money, rascim and violence is a by product
Yes I think money is the strongest motive. Most things can benefit from having money. Money is the oil.
I was expecting the Triads.
Well watch American documentaries then
Gangs does this still exist I thought all these were in the movies wow you learn something new everyday……
Recruitment usually happens for earlier schools and colleges maybe these people want to know these people that they're from there hood as they so called many more of us than they are
The most notorious Asian gangs in London are Bangladeshis followed by some Sri Lankans. The Pakistanis are more notorious up North of England.
Not asian . Duhh
When they have to return home when people have had enough, life will be tough for them back home.
Did the Irish return home I don't think so.
I hope so...but your reyssist ilk outside europe must also go back..humans dont want wite settlers outside europe...
That shopkeepers today have to pay protect money is a huge law enforcement failure-waste of tax money that people work hard for.
Get rid of the gangs now
If govt wanted that they wouldn’t wait for permission.
Yeah the ones that beat cops on weekends. The reform cult of thuggery and anti Christian according to Tice
Get rid of all the gangs
Yes especially the ones in uniform that think there duty is to protect the elite pedophiles
Wow what a fresh and revolutionary idea I bet nobody else has ever thought of that!

How the tables have turned
Sunrise radio was in brownslow (hounslow) in the 80's, when avtar litt operated allegedly unofficially.
The office in southalabad (around the former walls facory) of sunrise radio came about a least a decade after this pirate radioacy.
In London maybe, we've had Nepolese gangs in Kent for ages (along with the Albys and Yardies)
This is years old London has deteriorated significantly since this program
when they forced condon to be more 'correct', the police lost contact and control over a huge part of the market, hence, the success of the golden mile in harringey
YES CONDON , seemed to vanish .?
The golden mile what is that ? I genuinely don't no where that is
So you are just leaning back to let it happen?
This was an interesting watch, but I worked in the area of Tooting for over twenty years from the mid seventies to the late nineties and never heard of any gangs or gang warfare in this area.
Also living as a child in Bermondsey was aware of Cable Street, there was always the threat of the Cable Street gang, as we new them, being told to not go there after dark, or if you did, at your own peril, yes, there were Irish immigrants, but don’t forget there was also Chinese and Maltese in the area who could look after themselves as well and could be just as ruthless!!!
i thought it was about the shelby's
Toughest gangs are Bangladeshi ones. Brick Lane Massive and Whitechapel Tigers are two of the bigger ones, they had Yardies, Triads and East End White Gangs petrified of geographic penetration
Tooti nuns vs holy smokes 😂 southall late 80s
Blames crime on racism. 😂. How surprising
Are you saying English people aren’t racist? 😂 I believe he’s saying the gangs started because of racism which is how most gangs in predominantly anglo Saxon countries initially formed..
I resent the use of the word "Asian" which includes very peaceful East Asian cultures
Why work 9-5 when you can be in a gang. Sad but true
There's a celebration, festival type thing that happens in London with the Indian community idk what they celebrate but they come together and do an event they are all smiling and dancing with all colourful clothes on. Bet there's no cast division when that thing is going on, so I don't see why it should be any different when it's a normal day. Well the British are not much different they are divided by rich, working class and poor so I think prejudice is everywhere
Nope caste divisions in South Asia are significantly worse than class divisions in the West , if anything in this day and age out of all the immigrants in the UK, I would argue that middle easterners and Asians are amongst the most prejudiced.
There’s no caste division even in India. Ask them to name these so called temples or businesses that ask for ur caste credentials before entering. This is classic propaganda

2) work flat out for a pittance, pay it all out in rent/basics.

And Millions paid to corrupt Pakistani Generals like Musharraf in the name of war on terror was also allowed back in UK and Dubai.

Well Enoch Powell did warn us but as usual we never heed the warnings.
Is Gary and Martin Kemp, Ross Kemp’s kids?
This much is true .
Funny how Brits say Asian but they're not Asian
Funny how Americans dont know what Asia is
It's called "Asians"... because, that was when the world has Asia, as a continent... and SE Asia... wasn't formally applied, because at that time, SE Asia... actually called themselves something else. They were Imperial Kingdoms. As in.. Imperial Korea ( Goreo, Silia... etc)..... and Imperial Japan (Yamato, )... and Imperial... China... (Ming, Qing, Hans, Tang)....
It's not 'Asian' not 'South Asian' it's Pakistani gangs. 100 percent of them are Pakistanis
That's not entirely true as I have seen Sikh indian gangs, afghan gangs, Sri Lankan tamil gangs, bengali gangs and hindu Indian gangs. All South Asian
Dockers pay was a pittance so they saw it as their right to take concessionary goods for sale to make their money up.
It was during the prolific Atlantic slave trade that the authorities took notice, by then theft was seen as normal for dock labourers.
They introduced a state funded police to stop these thefts. It was the first police force and it's remit was to Protect the Property of the Slave Traders.
Not much has changed since.
Martin/Gary kemp….. give me a break both muppets of the highest order 😂😂
The eastbenders boys
The UK royals are the biggest gang in London.
this was going on 20 years ago. to little to late
I always find it so bizarre how the UK uses the word "Asian" to people from the Indian subcontinent.
Yes, I'm well aware that Indian and Pakistanis are considered to be "South Asian", but in the US and over here in Australia, we only ever use the word Asian to describe someone from East Asia, like Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese.
Social conditioning and political correctness because otherwise it's racist .. apparently personally if anyone called me a taffy (Welsh) I wouldn't find it offensive
U won't change
Only in the UK that I, a Korean, am not referred to as "Asian" but "Chinese"...
Now u know how us (south)Asians feel when American call us “Indian”
Because racist white English people from working class backgrounds can't tell the difference because they are not too smart
You look similar to Chinese that’s why
