Having failed to disarm criminals with gun controls that they defy, British politicians are now turning their attention to implementing something new and different: knife control. Because criminals will be much more respectful of knife laws than of those targeted at firearms, I guess.
"No excuses: there is never a reason to carry a knife. Anyone who does will be caught, and they will feel the full force of the law," London's Mayor Sadiq Khan tweeted on April 8.
Not to be outdone, his predecessor, Boris Johnson, currently Foreign Secretary, called for increased use of stop-and-search powers by police. "You have got to stop them, you have got to search them and you have got to take the knives out of their possession."
A friend of mine who went to London a few years ago was taken aside on landing at Heathrow as he had a pocket knife. He was told it was an 'offensive weapon' and it was confiscated and he was told that he might be stopped and evaluated at any time as they had his planned locations written down. Made them feel safer I suppose.

Considering all the third world filth they have let in that is somewhat amusing.
Next thing when you go to a Restaurant in the UK you will have to eat with your hands.Knives ,forks and spoons will be outlawed.Then only Outlaws will have knives ,forks and spoons!!
Do they have a bin for the ACID that are used in the street attracts against women ?
The UK has one of highest rates of acid attacks in the world, according to the police. 2017 was the worst year for acid attacks in London according to London Metropolitan Police showed a sharp rise in attacks, with 465 recorded in 2017, up from 395 the previous year and 255 in 2015.

Disgusting! I wonder how much security that mussie mayor has. Britain is no longer great but is forever lost.

Hell, I guess they'd probably shoot me on sight. I carry a knife AND a pistol........... But then, the odds of catching me in England are slightly higher than those of hell freezing over.

The Brits have gone from just being stupid to complete idiocy.
And in the process are looking like the German Nazi's................all to no good result.
A sign showing the Cookie Monster calling you a coward for possessing a screwdriver or broken bottle sounds like a the dream of a never-worked, anti-vaxxer, stay-at-home, blue-state mom. In other words, about as useful in application as teats on a boar hog.
Pretty interesting social engineering experiment England is. They're whole society has been developed around the class system. Only those born into the right family get a leg up with whatever they want, get the good white collar jobs in other words get the money. The rest are paid slaves of one degree or another. They'd like to tell themselves they've left the class system behind and are a modern country and society but that's bs, the class system thrives behind the scenes. So you have a high percentage of people born on the wrong side of the tracks with the deck stacked against them in a huge way. Not surprisingly quite a few give up and just start stealing from the fuggers.
I was in Ireland last month so you get a lot of Brit tv news at night blended in with the Irish news. Tons of murders and violent crime daily it seemed in England. In Ireland a bit here and there, about drugs and gangs and someone gets shot or their house burned. In Britain widespread crime everywhere with little rhyme or reason and its hard to get a gun so knives it is. Maybe they should wake TF up and realise banning guns hasn't helped banning knives won't either they need a complete societal attitude adjustment. Maybe they need to start from scratch.
It's kinda sad because Britton was our closest ally. Some of the most famous arms makers in the world are there. A lot of truly great engravers, etc. London's mayor being a muslim infidel is pretty scary. Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher must be spinning in their graves.
What a pathetic situation. The rag heads should sue for being called cowards. I’m sure the rag heads can substantiate that the carrying of weapons is in their culture, and therefore should be allowed.
Churchill and Thatcher have to be spinning in their graves. (had not yet read page 2 comments and said the same as above) Pity that it was once a great nation.
How has the world overall fallen apart so quickly? . . . . Seriously????
I'm wondering if you could get permission to place one of those boxes outside of a Walmart. Put a sign on it saying for people to dump their unwanted weapons/knives for proper disposal. Probably wouldn't need to check it but once a week. You could put a number on it for people to call, if they had any long guns that they wanted someone to come pick up and dispose of.
The fish and chips is good, but hard to mess that up. And if the dental work is free, they clearly don’t take advantage of it. Brits have some of the nastiest teeth I’ve ever seen. They even joke about American’s obsession with straight and white teeth.
But. But what are they gonna do about a cricket ball in a sock???
Probably entertain the masses, what the heck do you think "sports" are used for?
Seriously, all those adults around the world tied up fretting about how well professional sportsmen play a child's game. It is all about controlling the masses so they don't all decide to kick the traces and change the status quo.
Why do you think governments are so all-fired keen to build "sports" complexes.
