Make Knife Crime tougher
Parliament and the Government need to make knife crime into a tougher sentence such as 15 years for carrying a knife or any bladed article and life imprisonment without parole for murder due to knife crime.
Parliament or the Government need to take knife crime seriously as there are many people who have had their life taken.
Some criminals involved in knife crime tend to reoffend once released from prison.
