Thank god I don't live in East London.:joker:

Thankfully the guy seems to be okay which is a good thing, that will scar him for life though sadly.

Yes many youngsters carry strong kitchen knifes (all over England)
you can buy them in Poundland.
Age check on it.

The Mayor is blaming police cuts, but stop and search was cut due to racial profiling now alot of people who spoke out against stop and search are arguing for its return, the Mayor has been very silent in the issue and hasn’t been to any of the areas where many of the crimes are taking place, and I haven’t seen him on any local news programme for weeks

The mayor is really quite conspicuously absent and it's really bad form I think. He should be speaking up, it's part of his job.

I don't think blaming Sadiq Khan is entirely accurate. I don't think that either the Mayor or the Government could've stopped these events although the actions of both the Mayor and the Government are not helping knife crime.

He must set a new Plan
no good using Politics first

The London Police chief has a new plan
for example
she went on every news yesterday and today

It’s nothing new though...

bots 07-04-2018 07:26 PM

knife crime has been common place for decades. Stop and search would help. Not sure what extra police would do if they can't stop and search people

Crimson Dynamo 07-04-2018 07:27 PM

just vile

yeah but remember stop and search is evil and horrid and racist, so we can't possibly have that

I am hardly going to increase my popularity on here by posting this, but the truth is that this - suddenly newsworthy - phenomenon is both no surprise and far worse than the average man-in-the-street realises.

According to figure from the London Metropolitan Police and New York City Police Department to 'USA Today' magazine, London's murder rate in February 2018 of 15 deaths and 22 in March 2018 SURPASSED New York's for the first time and sadly for me, this WILL continue.

It is SHOCKING to learn from 'USA Today' that in 2017, there were TWICE as many murders in New York City than London but THIS year ALREADY the monthly murder rates are nearly the same.

Do NOT scream for my lynching (I HAVE been known to be CORRECT about a lot of uncomfortable facts on here before) but in my opinion, IMMIGRATION and WEAK Local and National Government - which have ALLOWED vitally important POLICIES to be dictated by Political Correctness INSTEAD of rational NEED - a general DEGENERATION in Society's standards, and a rising number of families, both Immigrant AND Indigenous, where the parents have increasingly poor parenting skills, are ALL key factors behind this rise in knife deaths, murder and violence in general.

'Gangs' have ALWAYS existed in London and other major UK cities, but Immigration has exacerbated the situation because many immigrant youths hail from war-torn and economically deprived countries where 'Life is Tough', 'Survival is Paramount', and 'weapons culture' is more prevalent due to less stringent policing and generations of exposure to violence.

Someone has already mentioned 'Stop and Search' on here, and though 'Stop and Search' WAS being abused by corrupt Police Officers who were misusing their powers to vent their own twisted prejudices, 'Stop and Search' WAS also a MUCH-NEEDED weapon in the fight against rapidly escalating 'Serious Crime' and INSTEAD of our cowardly Government succumbing to pressure from the Liberal/Left PC Lobby and scrapping 'Stop and Search', they SHOULD have instead WEEDLED OUT the corrupt Policemen who were abusing it and ensured that only decent, equitable and mature police carried it out FAIRLY .

This is one HUGE problem which is here to STAY, and though sometimes our young need protecting from THEMSELVES, it is the ADULTS who need EDUCATING if we are to at least CONTAIN this threat to society.

Over the past decades, a lot of Teachers have become more Liberal in their own attitudes towards discipline, but in addition, Political Correctness has seen them STRIPPED of a lot of their powers of AUTHORITY over the children in their care whilst we still impose RESPONSIBILITY for that care upon them, and Responsibility WITHOUT Authority is NEVER going to work.

The result is that children become more 'feral' less disciplined.

We NEED to restore POWERS to our Policemen, Teachers and other Professionals WHILST first diligently SCREENING and VETTING those professionals that they are 'Fit for Purpose', and we need to FORCE ALL parents to be responsible for their children WHILST EDUCATING them in the partly 'Lost Art' of parenting.

Finally, where real measures of Prevention have failed, then anyone found guilty of Murder, knife crime, Gun Crime, or any other type of Violent Crime, SHOULD be DEALT with no regard for any possible 'Back-Lash' from Politically Correct' bodies ONLY Punishment and Deterrent.

Sadly Kirk I also think the problem is so bad in certain areas of London (and other cities, but mainly London) that no amount of "good parenting" is guaranteed to help. Kids hit their teens and get swept up in it all and are lost to any parenting very quickly.

My advice to anyone living in one of these areas who have young kids that are so far protected from it? Would be... Leave. Just leave. If you're living in a deprived area then you can't possibly have any strong economic link to London so move your kids away from the city before it's too late.

Oliver_W 07-04-2018 10:18 PM

Don't underestimate the power of good parenting - one of the best measures for someone being successful in life and avoiding crime is whether or not they have two parents.

That's not to say all parents who stay together are good parents, or that people raised by two parents will always be massively successful and crime-free, but it's still one the best measures we have.
