    Having turned all my mains fuses round the other way as a precaution, I think I've got everything covered now.

    London murder rate now higher than New York's:

    The Met Commissioner, Cressida Dick, has vowed to tackle the epidemic of knife crime across the capital and has suggested that social media could be responsible for street violence.

    Clearly. Because before the internet there was no violence at all. With people this stupid running the show expect it to get worse before it gets better.
