    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.

    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.

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

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

    Make it illegal to have children. Then in 15 years or so there'll be no 15 year olds to go round stabbing each other. Problem solved.
