“The Conservative Party leader [David Cameron] now says anyone found carrying a knife should be jailed. Last month the Prime Minister said everyone, from the age of 16 upwards, should be prosecuted for carrying a knife, but there was no mention of an automatic prison sentence. ‘I don’t believe that the Government’s ‘presumption to prosecute’ is enough. It doesn’t send a strong enough signal. We need a ‘presumption to prison.’ We have a real problem of epidemic proportions. Eighteen kids in London have been stabbed to death this year. If we don’t do something now it will go on and on.’” (07/07/08) Link: http://tinyurl.com/5wy3n2 Filed under: 2AM News and LAND News and RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
