Breitbart: The rise of extreme knife violence, including machete attacks and torture, has seen hospitals forced to take on “military practice” in order to deal with the level of severe injuries now inflicted on UK streets.
Trauma units across the country have had to send staff to be trained in warzone-type emergency medicine techniques as A&E departments are faced with patients suffering life-threatening knife wounds with increasing frequency, according to a 2019 report.
The lead surgeon and major trauma director at St Mary’s, Paddington, Dr Shehan Hettiaratchy, said the “incredibly demanding” nature of treating knife crime victims has seen the London hospital finding vacant staff positions “difficult to fill”.
As the number of patients who were shot and stabbed increased to 26 and 352, respectively, last year, so too has the risk of gang violence ‘spilling over’ into the hospital wards, he said.
“We’ve had to expand our skill set [with methods that] aren’t commonplace and are are developed from military practice, like taking someone who is bleeding out straight to the operating theatre.”
Dr Adrian Boyle at Addenbrooke’s Hospital described how the “small numbers” of knife crime victims previously seen at the Cambridge A&E have increased to “a lot”, explaining that rising knife and drugs crime has seen violence spill out from England’s urban areas into towns and rural regions. more here
Maybe they should ban soccer. Keep those hooligans off the street.
The sad truth here is edged weapons can be much deadlier than a gun.
It’s never been the weapons causing violent crime.
It’s always been the people.
The nature of the English people is changing now, and is reflected in the rising violence seen there.
They just need “common sense” knife safety laws! Background checks, 3-week waiting periods, only one knife per month, registration of all knives, and a ban on military-style assault knives! That ought to do it!
In addition to ‘common-sense’ knife laws they really need for the press to just stop reporting on it. If we can’t see it, it doesn’t exist. Right??? 😉
They need a muslim ban
Their real problem is, it’s hard to cut a steak with a 2 by 4. Which can also be used as a weapon.
The carnage will cease once you declare all of the UK a knife free zone. Haha
And while your at it give everyone who throws acid in somebodys face a five minute time out.
There, that should do the trick!

Maggy told the world 20 years ago Tony was making this be. She was right! Tony got it done! Brits have no one to blame but themselves.
Obviously the answer is to disarm all the white people and throw them behind bars if they show too much concern about violence by immigrants.
