Increase the minimum sentence for knife crime
We want parliament to increase all knife crime sentences and overall any particular crime involving knife crime.
We believe that by increasing crime sentences -involving knife crime- it will help create a safer yet secure environment and hopefully impact the abolishment of knife crime or use.
