78 is the figure for young people according to a quick Google search, 233 is the all up figure. It's tragic, I'm not saying it's not. It's not what I'd consider a widespread problem in the way it's being portrayed by the media and that media coverage is causing problems of its own and by being divisive is making the problems in our society worse. We also have to consider that the vast majority of those have decided to participate in a lifestyle putting them at risk, if it's not a knife it will be something else.
I do agree with the changes, as I said. There's no place for those kinds of weapons.

Sat by the super yacht dock in Ibiza watching crew scurrying around doing wipedowns after this morning rain. Glamour.....

While the number of knife murders in 2023 was 244, this figure is lower than the peak of 282 knife killings recorded in 2017/18.Aug 16, 2024
The Sunreef is called Shades of Grey. Seems to be a popular colour around here. A number of others grey too.

I suppose it's different from standard white. Not even sure what colour I'd go for if I had the choice

Alternatively you could confuse U Boat captains attempting to get a manual fire control solution by using WW1 dazzle camouflage.

Got to repeat the question.
Why is knife crime such a problem in UK yet in Portugal and Spain there are so many shops selling large knives and swords.

Knife crime is low because guns are readily available
