Knife crime in London is getting worse and the Metropolitan Police is the worse constabulary with a 1590 recorded knife crimes recorded between January and March of this year alone.


Greater Manchester comes second with 620 recorded knife crimes between January and March.

The capital has seen a spate of stabbings and knife related deaths in the last weeks, with no end in sight.

New measures have been introduced on London's underground system with x-ray machines installed to scan for weapons, and new stop and search campaigns in areas of London particularly affected by knife crime.

The government according to the Prime Minister will "punish" anyone carrying a knife.
