Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 June 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Knife Crime.
Knife Crime
We are in danger of isolating knife crime and of trying to treat it on its own, but I suspect that there is a strong correlation between the leader of the pack who carries a knife, the leader of the pack who throws a brick through a bus shelter window, and the leader of the pack who sets fire to school premises during half term. All those youthful crimes need to be dealt with as a whole; I urge the Minister to do that, rather than just highlighting knife crime.
