Why do politicians steer clear of making the simple decisions....currently regarding knife crime.
Make the penalty for anyone found to be carrying a knife, regardless of whether they use it or not, 5 years in jail( and a full 5 years) ,not cushy half time off for behaving oneself. There can only be two reasons for carrying a knife.....attack or defence. Either way someone will get hurt and as something like 15 London families this year are already in mourning for their teenage sons, this is a matter of some urgency.
Brown, Cameron,Clegg and Johnson.... put your heads together and do the sensible thing, or do you need to have them knocked together.
