I heard this very briefly mentioned at the end of a new item today.

2018 is 7 weeks old and 13 people have been stabbed to death.

Yet the media and social media is mainly focusing on Trump with brexit intervals and occasional mentions of May and Corbyn.

Sadly nowadays life is cheap.
Not for the people directly involved but from more than two people away who cares. Not morally but emotionally.
It won't get better but if you compare to what happens in the usa!!! Say no more
RIP all here and abroad.

I think the interest is there, but the dicks who carry and use knives and if not associate with ones who do , don't give a toss.
If five years for carrying was implemented not only would the jails and youth offender centres be chocka. The PC 'oh that's a bit harsh' brigade would be all over it.
Somewhat of a losing battle I'm afraid to say.

I must say bar that when I moved to Kent that thought wasn't on my mind about the violence ,as really only recently it has reared its ugly head.
But now I am so pleased I did and for my boys I'm sure it has shielded them from this.
I was born and brought up in Croydon which way back as written on earlier posts in my youth it was fantastic. Alas no more.

correct. we could always assign them some hard labour/community service ? and also publicly shame them for carrying a knife. That is done in other countries.

will Sadiq Khan be telling us 'this is all just part and parcel of living in a big city ?
