You have to go along and visit the Knife Angel in the cathedral grounds. It stands as a monument against violence and aggression.

The knives used in it's creation had been confiscated by Police authorities from around the country, 30% of the knives used arrived at the works still bloodied in evidence tubes.

I live near the place he was created and been to see him a few times, watched him go on his Liverpool journey yesterday, quite emotional. The creator wishes him to eventually be on display in Trafalgar square, but Sadiq Khan thinks he is a negative image for the city to display.

Shame, it truly is a thought provoking emotional piece of art.

Doesn't sound like a good idea for London with all the knife deaths.

I know the sculptor, and literally blood, sweat and tears have gone into creating it.

Yes it’s well worth seeing. Wonderful sculpture and a good idea to highlight how out of control knife crime

Knives are tools.

When the Labour party ban knives and guns the problem gets worse not better.

I think weapons are a good thing. The honest citizen carrying a weapon cancles out the criminals.

Making it illegal for self defence is a form of opression. We are merely serfs not free men.

I believe in the 2nd amendment and a person's right to carry a weapon and defend themselves.

Knives aren't weapons though. I'm not intrested in seeing a display of kitchen knives.

They might aswell ban blunt objects...

It's still not going to stop criminals having acess to guns.

It's illegal to carry a gun or knife in London.

Since the government baned private citizens owning handguns and carrying knives the problem has got worse.

That's because British people are very stupid and backwards compaired to America.

Do we have the 2nd Amendment in the UK?

If your only friend is a knife you need to stay home more.

I agree, or get out more minus the knife and make new friends.
