ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In today's episode, we explore the disturbing rise in severe violent crime across London, focusing on the sharp increase in knife crime offences since the pandemic. Recent research reveals that nearly one in four Londoners have experienced threats or attacks within the city over the past five years. As concerns mount, 63% of residents now back the police's stop-and-search tactics to combat violence.
Join us, as we deep dive into the challenges facing policymakers, the impact of soaring crime rates on the upcoming mayoral election, and the strategies being considered to enhance safety in the capital.
