Lord Mayors questions about 1.28.30 into this vid and for about 3/4 minutes. The whole vid well worth a watch. |

Spot on northanlite; in fact, when I checked the figures around a year ago London is lower than the rest of the country (per head). For some reason it is highlighted more

A woman who was about eight months pregnant has been stabbed to death in south London.
The 26-year-old was found with stab wounds at a home in Raymead Avenue, Thornton Heath, Croydon, at 03:30 BST and pronounced dead at the scene. Scotland Yard said her baby was delivered by paramedics and taken to hospital. The child remains in a critical condition. A 37-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-48814571 |

Their is no way knife crime was higher in 2009, you are probably using google for your tainted views.The more interesting stat is how stop & search declined since 2009 and that cautions were issued instead of a tougher sentence. but you wont care as you are a virtue signaler.
2008 33% 2009 30% 2017 32% 2018 36% this year has not ended. |

There is a correlation between the majority of knife crime and a minority group in our midst that only a blind man could fail to see. It will continue and grow.
|
|
By:
But I prefer to blame Boris.
 It is like when Dianne Abbott wants to end stop and search as it is waycist but the outcome is that more people will end up dead, usually from the minority she is claiming to defend. Stupid is as stupid does. |

Heavily pregnant woman, 26, stabbed to death in Croydon - her baby survived but is in critical condition in hospital
Just before 6pm on Saturday, a man was injured in a fight in Coldharbour lane in Brixton and later died A man in his 20s was stabbed to death in Newham just after 11pm last night An 18-year-old died after being stabbed in Southwark in the small hours of Sunday morning The deaths take the number of people killed in violence in London in 2019 up to 64 Also a full blown riot at a Rave ... |
|
By:
How many of those 64 were significant , in the grand scheme of things ?
|
|
By:
Ethnic I think
|
|
By:
I think it's safe to assume that a vast majority of 'victims' would have gone on to become killers if they'd survived , that's assuming that they hadn't already killed before their demise .
Therefore they can be classed as 'insignificant'  |

I'm just saying it's the sort of statement that the leftist media could twist to show you in a very bad light. Don't shoot the messenger.
|
|
By:
Quite frankly couldn't give a fig about the leftist media . If my words require twisting in order to show me in a 'bad light' then it probably means I'm not too far away from the truth of the matter .

Some lives matter more than others. Take Iraq and Afghan casualties for example....One British life for maybe 100s of theirs. Sickening.
What's the tipping point for knife crime? Surely it'll be when an MP wears a stabvest in her own constituency. Oh wait, that happened 11 (eleven) years ago!!! Harriet Harman, the leader of the House of Commons, has been drawn into an embarrassing row after being pictured wearing a stab-proof vest as she toured her constituency. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/labour/1583485/Harriet-Harman-in-stab-vest-for-Peckham-walk.html |

More exciting news about knife crime, from Vibrant Croydon. I can't wait to see what 'The Defence" is. Not even the Crystall Ball Fortune Telling Department of the Metropolitan Police have mentioned 'Mental Health Issues' as far as I am aware.
You can see now why the 'Progressive' Left simply adore Asylum Seekers, and want much more of this to Enrich Tolerant Britain. Just be careful next time you pop into Tesco Extra for a loaf of bread. . https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7204663/Afghan-asylum-seeker-fuelled-desire-kill-English-people.html |

Meanwhile, another day, another Jewish man is threatened with beheading in Lovely Enriched Tower Hamlets.
The report declines to describe or name the arrested individual who is thankfully in custody. . https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/jewish-man-threatened-with-beheading-by-knifeman-in-east-london-street-a4180136.html |

Thanks alun. You never fail to brighten up my day.
Any updates on the cat that got rescued by the fire brigade? Or the old lady that was helped over the road by the boy scout? |
|
By:
I take it that these facts (and many many others) were a tad too inconvenient for your liking?
|
|
By:
I think it's very public spirited of you - to post all these nice stories form the Daily Mail on-line.
If it weren't for you posting them all on-line here, the people without access to the internet would never know about them. Are you sure you haven't got an update about that cat? It was one of those troublesome black cats, surely you must have heard something. |
|
By:
It was a British cat, and as such the perfect embodiment of felinity.

When I was younger I watched the film 'West Side Story'...great film
That was about gang warfare, the Whites vs Puerto Ricans in the 1950's, they used knives It seems to have arrived here now The American gangs have graduated up to guns. |
