London Mayor Sadiq Khan has launched a major crackdown on the "scourge" after three fatal stabbings were reported in the capital within hours of each other.
New measures will see schools given metal detecting "knife wands" and a new community sentence for those convicted of knife possession.

"The only way we can truly beat the scourge of knife crime on our streets is by properly funding youth services - the Government needs to step up, reverse these cuts and help provide the services we need to tackle knife crime."
And the highly effective strategy:
Part of the mayor's new plan would involve "naming and shaming" retailers who continue to illegally sell knives to underage customers.
First, ban guns. Then, spend a buttload of money on "youth services." (i.e. black hole). Now, metal detectors in every school.
Solid plan, Mr. Mayor. Solid plan.
And look at all the good we've done so far!
p.s. I honestly thought “knife wands” were some kind of defensive weapon haha.
Ceramic and plastic knives kill real gud.
Yep, Jedi knife wands....
You rotten liar. What makes you think you can get away with saying something like that? Have you gotten Maxine Water Brain all of a sudden? You just attacked me for absolutely no reason. Why would you do so, you evil, vile demon.
Is that British Law or Sharia law?
Lol! Oh London.....you are just adorable.
Bats and clubs next. Ultimately, carrying of any non-Nerf object will be criminalized. And legs and arms. Limbs can be deadly weapons. Heads, too.
I swear that's what I thought when I read the headline. Ha.
“Part of the mayor’s new plan would involve “naming and shaming” retailers who continue to illegally sell knives to underage customers.”
hmmm. If it is illegal why not arrest them instead of ‘shaming’ them?????
Looks like my kitchen junk drawer.

...and rocks. Don’t forget rocks.
I honestly thought knife wands were some kind of defensive weapon
I thought they were finally coming to their senses, at least enough to teach aggressive armed defense to the teachers.
Boy am I stupid.
You sir, are a kaffir....
As did most of us, thought they were going to train to fend off Knifers
Hand out bacon instead
Centiaggressions hurt more than microaggressions...
eliminate guns
eliminate knives
eliminate bats
eliminate clubs
eliminate socks (that can hold rocks)
All this because they failed to eliminate or prevent people from coming to their shores where were dead set planning to kill innocent people.
And so it goes in the age of not taking responsibility.
More evidence of London completely ignoring the root of its problem.
