GB News: Shocking new stats expose lawless London as 'cultural sensitivities' blamed for mounting knife crime
Arrests for weapon possession in London have dropped by 30% over three years, with only 1,647 arrests made between September and December 2024, down from 2,349 in 2022. This decline occurs despite rising knife crime, which reached 15,016 incidents in 2023/24, the highest since 2019/20.
Former police officer Peter Bleksley attributes this trend to a shift in policing culture, suggesting that police are now more focused on social services than crime fighting. He criticizes past government policies that limited stop-and-search practices and calls for tougher penalties to deter knife carrying.
