Knife crime can destroy families and put children at risk. Young people are dying because knives are too easy to buy and too easy to carry. We believe current laws are weak and the Government has not acted strongly enough. We need traceable knives, stricter controls, tougher licensing, and a higher purchase age to protect our children and save lives.
