Why - do you have your own squirrel suit?

Nope but he says he's got a hairy arse, is that close enough?

I think only Atw can answer that

Zero tolerance - custodial sentence.

Zero tolerance - custodial sentence.

They did that for handguns, I don't think it worked too well.

No, because when it comes to crime they're all mouth - Everyone knows the prisons are full to bursting with feather-bedded convicts.

When they had a problem with blades in the palace of Westminster they painted two lines on the floor which the members were not allowed to cross. Knife crime could be eliminated if nobody was allowed within 2 metres of another person.

I wish I could erase those lines - with a bit of luck the whole lot would end up dead.

I say carry metal 'table forks' around and use them together to form a new martial art.

Prong those Chav's to death ! and when you do say "Sorry officer I had two forks on me as I was habving a Picnic next weekend and forgot to remove them from my bag !".

Who has ever gone down for carrying an offensive / illegal ... 'fork' !

I tell ya.

New Labour approach. Ban knives. All of them. Even in the kitchen. Have a national sharp-implement database and cutting edge (geddit) surveillance in every home.

Tory approach. Just make it legal to carry guns, knife crime will plummet.

New Labour approach: Create a tax on all knives which will unfairly burden the chav class. Upon backbench revolt, raise the income tax free allowance.

Tory approach: Wait to see what NL do, then arrange a press photo shoot of Cameron on his Raleigh Chopper.
