Elliot Colburn MP asking the Justice Minister About the Government's Support for Restorative Justice

Paul Scully MP is joined by Ray & Vi Donovan MBE's of the Chris Donovan Trust along with Danny O'Brien from Anti-Knife U.

Yesterday I joined Ray & Vi Donovan of the Chris Donovan Trust along with Danny O'Brien from Anti-Knife UK to walk around Sutton High Street looking at how shops were displaying their knives for sale. Pound and More at the bottom now have theirs behind glass and Robert Dyas have a lock on each of the display hangers which need a member of staff. Asda and Poundland had nothing which meant they could easily be stolen and used as a weapon. Securing these doesn't have to be expensive for the retailers or too onerous for customers but can save lives.
