Create a special unit in the Metropolitan police that focuses on knife crime.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The police are operationally independent of the UK Government and Parliament, and it would be their decision to implement a special unit for knife crime. However we have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:
Launch a national public awareness campaign about knife crime
