The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We understand you're concerned about sentencing for possession of knives, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Sentencing guidelines were last published in March 2018:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
There are other petitions about this issue. You could sign one of these instead. You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
