Fund more youth projects and pay more attention to crimes happening in London.
Gun and Knife Crime is a serious issue that needs media attention. Many young lives are being taken away,communities destroyed and parents left distraught. We want youth on youth Knife and Gun Crime tackled more efficiently. We believe the Government should do so much more to keep our streets safer.
14 lives were taken last year. Still the Government has failed to combat this ongoing problem. We have spoken and interviewed a local MP, Chuka Umunna, who has supported our campaign to end these needless killings.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure what specific action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.
If you're concerned about policing in London, that's not something that the UK Government or Parliament can help with. Policing in London is the responsibility of the London Assembly.
The London Assembly has its own petitions process. You can find out more about how to petition the London Assembly here:
