Absolutely ridiculous.
Which brainless idiot is behind this nonsense.

Only way to start cutting knife crime is to stop closing all the youth centres so that the youngsters actually have something to do instead of knifing each other

I never went to youth clubs when I was a youngster, but played football and other sports. I'd meet up with my mates, might generally fuck about, or go to the pictures or something. Sometimes if bored at home, I might even read a book!

We weren't angels, but what it never crossed our minds to do, despite not going to a youth club, was to go out and stab someone.

I used to go to a youth club in the early 60's but only because they had a football team . Spent a lot of time playing 5 a side and table tennis. However the only time that there was a chance of a dust up was if the Somers Town mob turned up but there were never knives involved. I seem to remember a bottle and a brick or a walking stick was about the limit.

If there is a culture of carrying knives then it is very hard to put an end to it. I think Glasgow had some success with several agencies and approaches coming together.

WOW! So the Teachers joined in as well! 8) :D


We used to have a regular Annual Tear-Up with our local rivals... The "Rock Cakes" (Roman Catholics) with the "Proddies" (Protestants), we used to share the same playing fields: Football & Rugby Pitches and Racing Track. So whenever the Footie or Rugby Teams played each other it was guaranteed Carnage. Even the parents were Fighting along with the Priest and the Vicar... :D :box: <sigh> Those were the days! :D

The other school on a school trip was always good fun too, especially if it started in the car park with the finger and wánk signs from the coach windows. I remember going to The British Mueuem and one kid from my class hiding in Egypitan bathtub or something after a couple of kids that he'd had a run-in with came looking for him during that bit when the teachers let you look around the museum on your own. And there was always some twat who knew a few of the 'other school' and kept going on about how they were 'OK actually'. Even though we played FA Cup games in our normal kits in those days, nobody got stabbed or anything.

One of the biggest factors in knife crime (and general gang culture), is missing father figures, especially in certain 'communities', but we're not allowed to talk about that for fear of upsetting the woke brigade and getting cancelled.

Absolutely - give benefits and flats or houses to single mothers, and then you have an incentive for girls to have kids with as many willing lads as she wants :roll: Its common now to see a woman with 3 or 4 kids and all from different fathers - does the various governments and woke brigade not expect that to have a negative effect on kids upbringing ??
