While the government proclaims success in its war on crime - and even managing to claim that crime is falling even though the most violent crime is on the up, imagine my shock at reading this story.
Guns seem to be available to anyone who wants them. I have no idea how much they cost but they can't be that expensive if South London kids can afford to get them with their pocket money. I was 16 not long ago and my pocket money had to stretch to buy clothes, CDs and any socialising I wanted to do. Is London such a miserable place now that the best thing kids can come up with on a Saturday night is to shoot each other?
Welcome to New Britain.
