Proceeding contribution from Jim Cunningham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 June 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Knife Crime.
Knife Crime
The hon. Member for Kettering (Mr. Hollobone) has a point. We have similar problems in Coventry, and the Rotarians run a scheme every year that involves the police, the fire brigade and several voluntary organisations. They show kids the consequences of stealing a car and wrapping it around a tree. It is a very worthwhile scheme, and that is the sort of thing that we should consider.
