Petition Action

Flood London with police to halt the shocking rise in knife crime.

Petition Details

The increasing numbers of murders and assaults in London is unacceptable. We need a far greater police presence, and the police need to be given all the tools they need to fight this crimewave. London needs to return to the mainly peaceful, go-to, famous city it once was.

Additional Information

Residents of London are becoming, not just afraid, but embarrassed by their city. We no longer offer safety to our visitors, nor to ourselves.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because it's about something the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.

The Mayor of London is responsible for the Metropolitan Police.

You can find out how to petition the Greater London Assembly, which looks at the work of the Mayor, here:

You could start a new petition calling on the UK Government to provide more funding to the Metropolitan Police if that is something you would like to see happen.
