Wait, why would they ever switch away from using tallow? It's all I ever use for battered fish and nearly the only thing I'll use with potato wedges, but 100% beef tallow if it's going with the fish. Nothing else even comes close!

THIS IS REAL: UK Government Introduces ‘Knife Free’ Boxes of Fried Chicken to Reduce Violent Crime

snip>

The United Kingdom Home Office unveiled their new effort to crackdown on violent crime across England and Wales this week; introducing new ‘Knife Free’ boxes of Fried Chicken throughout the country.

“We are rolling out our #KnifeFree chicken boxes in over 210 chicken shops in England and Wales, including Morley’s, Dixy Chicken and Chicken Cottage. They use real life stories to show people how they can go #KnifeFree,” posted the official account of the Home Office UK.

The boxes are apparently normal fast-food containers with the words “#KnifeFree” included on the packaging.

— Home Office (@ukhomeoffice) August 14, 2019

A UK Member of Parliament demanded strict new policies to crackdown on violent crime throughout the United Kingdom earlier this year; calling for the implementation of a “GPS tracker” in every knife sold in the country.

“Every knife sold in the UK should have a gps tracker fitted in the handle. It’s time we had a national database like we do with guns. If you’re carrying it around you had better have a bloody good explanation, obvious exemptions for fishing etc,” tweeted MP Scott Mann.

Mann’s comments come as the UK struggles to clamp down on knife crime across London and beyond as homicide rates soar to record levels across the country.

Ferret?

London (CNN) — The offices of Britain's interior ministry in London were placed on lockdown Thursday after a man was stabbed on the street outside, in a knife attack UK Home Secretary Priti Patel described as "horrific" and "unprovoked."
Police were called to Marsham Street, where the Home Office building is located, on Thursday afternoon "following a report of a man with a knife at the location," London's Metropolitan Police said in a statement.
They attended to one man with knife injuries and arrested another "on suspicion of grievous bodily harm" who was taken into custody.
The suspect is believed to have been in possession of a ferret around the time of the attack. "A ferret is in police care following a stabbing outside the UK's Home Office," the Metropolitan Police told CNN.

I hope you understand, from MY perspective, the whole notion is insane that knives are the problem.

The lack of reading comprehension in this thread is impressive, even for GD standards.

They aren't witholding plastic knives because, as has been pointed out, who eats fried chicken with a knife?

They're printing messages about not carrying knives for the purposes of violence on the packaging of three KFC wanabee franchises (one of which is halal - very nearly acknowledging the real problem there...)

As for MP Scott Mann with the GPS suggestion, some of the responses are pretty good

"There's been a stabbing"
"Quick, get me the GPS tracking for every knife in a 3 mile radius"
"OK, it says there are 120,000 of them, mostly in kitchens"
"Bollocks, thought we had them then"
"Could ask those young lads with the machete"
"Nah, they've got a mackerel, been fishing"

What I love about this is that it's obviously exactly how he felt when he woke up in the middle of the night with this idea
"Bloody hell, Scott. You've only gone and bloody cracked the knife crime epidemic!"
*Imagines self accepting OBE

Think you need a GPS tracker fitted on yourself you absolute weapon.

I wouldn't say that. The lad doesn't sound very... Sharp

…too many UK politicians & public are too removed from reality & causality for the problem to EVER be fixed

They will ALWAYS seek to blame the tool, as it's easier on their conscience & voting demographics

ALSO IN UK NEWS TODAY
total drug deaths in the UK now at over 4300
Around 3000+ from illegal drugs, the rest from over-use or incorrect prescription of legally prescribed drugs
But, yeah, put fucking gps trackers in knives - add the annual battery change costs & record keeping admin to the rest of the taxes were swamped under

LoL,  Sad...

Thank God those Teen's did have a knife, they could of really killed him.

The thing that is either sad or quite possibly evil is the mindset that removing a particular object from a group of third world savages will somehow resort in their third world behavior going away. Knives go away, how about hammers and tools,  hammers and tools go away, how about clubs, how about bricks?

The problem could be solved tomorrow. Shut down immigration from undeveloped countries, any immigrants that committed a violent crime are deported, the subjects that were born in the UK, they should not be deported, but they should be removed from society if they are unable to adapt. If immagrant are unable to sustain their selves they are to be removed from the country.

The US could do this as well but suffers from the same problem that We want to Be authoritarian but not too much because that scares people so we can be really authoritarian in some areas and totally not in other areas.  Its quite Schizophrenic.

If the UK wants to be an authoritarian nanny state, how about exercising some authority.

When are they finally going to ban automobiles? How many more Nice, France vehicular terrorist attacks do we have to see before the UK government comes to it's common sense conclusion that they could save a lot of lives by banning cars??? Not only solves the potential for terrorist attacks using cars and trucks (imagine how much damage terrorists could do, with a gasoline tanker truck or a jet fuel tanker truck), but, also eliminates all of the yearly deaths caused by traffic accidents. Now that's some common sense vehicular violence prevention that they could do that would result in saving a lot of lives.
