Yes, much safer to mention the skin colour of his neighbours, than it would ever be to mention the skin colour of those carrying out these stabbings.

[Rockrose]

He is talking about one particular are of North London known for being a party area amongst the upper middleclass elite - well known for drugs to be taken at these parties.
I wonder if there have even been any stabbings in Primrose Hill.

[spathiphyllum]

Meh there are drugs everywhere and there always has been. If anything, the nicer places in london use to be brothels and drug dens, only to be renovated in the recent century. does he think drugs are a new invention or problem?

[spathiphyllum]

Soho is a perfect example.

[ludwig]

He's right about one thing. Drugs is behind it.

Zero tolerance is the answer to knife crime, but there's a lack of political will to take the necessary measures.
Quite honestly though, if it's drug dealers killing other drug dealers, I don't particularly care.

[Spicerack]

I thought it was down to a lack of yoot clubs and government cut-backs.

[youngmafbog]

I hate to agree with Marr, but he is correct on this one I reckon.

[Mamyalynne]

He is correct, anyone who buys drugs is by dint of that also part of the crime behind how those drugs get to their door.

[ToraToraTora]

he's a complete noo Labour T1tfer usually but he has a point. Plod should target these users of charlie and that in turn would cut the demand. They do fuel organised crime.

[Zacs-Master]

There are possibly a few Plod among them, Tora

[ToraToraTora]

start raiding some of these posh *** and bang them up. Targeting the suppliers has limited effect, start targeting the end user.

[spathiphyllum]

TTT if you cus of an animals head it dies. If you clip it's nails or trim it's hair, it'll regrow.

Waste of money going for the bottom man.

[spathiphyllum]

"start targeting the end user."
