Petition Action

Possession of a knife law change

Additional Information

We want to change the law and sentencing for carrying/possession of a knife if you are caught in possession of a knife it should be a minimum of 4 years imprisonment and a £5000 fine. Too many innocent people are dying because people carrying knives are still being allowed back out on the streets even after they have been given a warning for being caught in possession of a knife! No more second chances these second chances are killing or doing serious damage to innocent people!
