Proceeding contribution from Humfrey Malins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 June 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Knife Crime.


Knife Crime

As I am sure my hon. Friend accepts, gang culture exists not only out in the community but, increasingly, on the young offender prison estate. On admission to custody, the first thing that young offenders almost certainly do is join a gang, which causes tremendous trouble on the estate.
