    People trying to buy knives online will face tougher measures to prove their age under new restrictions being brought forward in the wake of the Southport knife attack.
    Axel Rudakubana, who has admitted murdering three young girls last July, bought a knife from Amazon when he was just 17, despite existing laws which prohibit the sale of most knives to under-18s.
    Online retailers will be forced to ask anyone buying a knife for two types of identification under government plans, with buyers asked to submit an identity document, such as a passport, and record a live video to prove their age.
    Amazon has said it takes its "responsibility around the sale of all age-restricted items - including bladed products - extremely seriously" and has launched an investigation.




    Tensions over when to make Southport details public.

    I watched Trump being inaugurated yesterday and was very impressed with the ceremony and Donald's speech, the mood there was euphoric, a true leader inspiring his people, absolutely brilliant.

    And then,
      This morning I watched that lily livered chinless [censored] Sneer bore the crap out of us and dodge questions, he makes me sick, he's a disgrace, an embarrassment, he's a laughing stock here and abroad.


      God bless America and God help us.

    Keir Starmer says the UK faces a "new threat" after the Southport murders, and that "terrorism has changed"
  • He says the threat comes from "extreme violence carried out by loners, misfits, young  bedrooms"
  • The prime minister also says the state's failure to prevent Axel Rudakubana's murders "leaps off the page" and the case should be a "line in the sand"
  • Last night, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper announced a public inquiry into the murders - [size=inherit]she's speaking now in the House of Commons, which you can watch live above
  • Rudakubana, 18, pleaded guilty to murdering three girls[/size] in a knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class last year
  • Rudakubana also admitted 10 attempted murders, the production of ricin, and possession of a terrorist document - namely a PDF file titled Military Studies in the Jihad against Tyrants: The Al-Qaeda Training Manual
  • After he pleaded guilty, Rudakubana's long history of violence emerged

    That appears to be the Labour way - more and more tax, less and less in return.


    Seems to be an abundance of money for foreign aid, Milliband's net zero obsession, Ukraine, and hotel bills for our guests from France.


    It's my bet that all the above is festering with the British public.
