Knife Crime
Gordon Brown has urged prosecutors to take many more people to court for knife crime.
The move was announced by the government this morning after prime minister Gordon Brown and home secretary Jacqui Smith met with representatives from the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo) at Downing Street.
As fears grow over people carrying blades, the Prime Minister is calling for fewer cautions to be dished out by police and the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
He hosted a breakfast meeting with the CPS, police chiefs and other ministers to discuss the issue, at which he urged a "presumption to prosecute" policy in cases of knife crime be applied more widely.
I wonder if that will include the metaphorical knife
