Update:
I'm a BASC nember, but I missed this. I have had 2 pocket knives delivered this week though.
Update:
Firearms come to mind.
It's all about control, gotta keep the sheep so they can be sheared naked for profit in the political pocket.Quick! Ban fire extinguishers and pillows! Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime! That way we can stop paying for police... oh look now there's a crime wave but it's OK chums, we politicians can afford private security and anyway the handful of police left will defend us against the unhappy masses of hoi polloi.
Instead of banning legitimate items with daily use, they could try supporting youth projects to prevent people from falling prey to gangs, or dealing with people that misuse everyday items. Almost all stabbings involve cheap kitchen knives which are readily available and no loss to dispose of. Nobody attacks people with razor blades or fancy collectible knives etc. Although in Slough they do like a machete. And there are no police to intervene so people walk about unchallenged with 2 foot jungle knives ffs.
