Khan’s London: Lead Surgeon Says Hospital Like Afghan War Zone, Two More Killed Overnight
breitbart ^ | 5 Apr 2018 | LIAM DEACON

Posted on 04/05/2018 6:05:29 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

Hospitals in Mayor Sadiq Khan’s London resemble those in a war zone, a senior surgeon working to save victims of the capital’s surging violent crime wave said. The comments come after two more men were killed overnight, a couple of days after another night of violence saw a boy, 16, stabbed to death and a 17-year-old girl shot in a “drive by”.

Wednesday night’s killings brought the death toll from suspected murder in the capital to 50 so far this year.

Dr. Mark Griffiths, lead surgeon at Barts Health NHS Trust in East London, said knife and gun wounds had moved from a “niche” part of his job to a daily chunk of his workload, and a growing number of victims were “children”.

“We used to look after people in their twenties. Now people are often in their mid to late teens and children in school uniforms are being admitted under our care with knife and gun wounds.

“Whereas a young boy being stabbed five or six years ago would have been a horror story, now it’s normal.

“People expect to see people being killed on a daily basis. Members of the public who are not involved in gangs or violence let this pass without comment and you get the society you deserve if you ignore violence.”

Mayor Khan responded to the crisis by blaming “Tory” cuts to the police, and claiming the crime was affecting other areas of the UK, too.

Amber Rudd, Home Secretary, has demanded social media firms censor online content in response to the crime waves.

A Home Office spokesman said: “Gangs often post videos online that seek to incite violence or glamorise criminality to influence young people.

“The instant nature of social media also means that plans develop rapidly and disputes can escalate very quickly.”

How can this be? The UK is a gun free zone.

The Left constantly tells us without guns crime goes down.

Are the good people of London not getting the message??

Something only a liberal could believe.

We’re fed a daily bombardment of praise for diversity and multiculturalism but no discussion of its negative and pernicious effects on the existing social fabric is ever permitted. Liberals don’t want that conversation.
