Serious youth violence is a social emergency and the government needs to get a grip on the problem or more teenagers will die, MPs have said. A report from the home affairs select committee said there was a “serious mismatch” between the government’s diagnosis of the problem and its solutions, and its serious violence strategy lacked leadership and focus. Boris Johnson has promised to hire 20,000 police officers and has appointed a new home secretary, Priti Patel, to deliver his vision for law and order. The committee welcomed more resources for police officers but said more action was needed urgently to improve prevention and early intervention services.
