I watch the British Parliament with some regularity.Among other things it's a great place to hear the Queen's English spoken properly. One thing you learn is that shootings aren't really common in Britain...mainly,I suppose,because it's very difficult to get a gun there. However,in the Parliament you regularly...frequently...hear mention of "knife crime".
I assume that they'll eventually ban the possession of knives so bad guys will have to resort to cricket bats.
