Petition Action

Immediate "knife self defence lessons" to be rolled out across the UK.

Petition Details

growing up in the united kingdom i have always heard of "knife attacks" and these past months i have noticed an increase in these attacks across the country which has left me worried about the future of our children and what is being done to stop and prevent these attacks in the future.

Additional Information

i believe it is up to the government to help prevent and protect its citizens in any means necessary to ensure the safety of the public and prevent crimes like this from happening again and again. people are losing lives at a tremendous rate over the past couple of months witch in my opinion is completely preventable given that parents and kids are to partake in classes abut knife awareness and self defence classes from such attacks.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you would like lessons to be taught about knife self defence and safety, but we aren't sure whether you would like the Government to fund such courses in the community or make them mandatory in educational institutions.

In any case, we could not accept your petition as you have not provided your full name.
