      We need the police & communities to work together so that stop & search can be accurately targeted at those actually carrying knives. That needs community policing & intelligence, which has been devastated by the Government’s cuts to police budgets. https://hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2018-11-05/debates/DBB3D158-2820-485D-B995-51736767A0C4/KnifeCrime#contribution-F10F3B3A-17C9-4175-8B95-4D73536E2353 …

      Thats true but more important is why they carry knives? Has anyone asked them? I asked them way back in the 1980 and they said then that they didn't feel safe. Okay keep your hair on police tweeters I know that some have them to commit crime but many are scared.

      I’ve asked them. Lack of visible policing presence makes them feel unsafe. Territorial & drugs gangs use knives as enforcement. Others feel they need them as defence, never thinking they’d use them but if you lose control, next thing it’s in someone’s ribs. Confiscate & reassure.

          It's always entertaining to ask anti-police critics how and who needs to keep kids safe in public space if it's not the police doing, er, police type stuff like asking questions & S&S...
