Mayoral election: London’s knife crime epidemic

Mayor Sadiq Khan’s critics say he’s failed to get a grip on London’s knife crime epidemic - so, what more can be done? In this episode of Who Wants to be a London Mayor, Hamish MacBain is joined by Evening Standard crime correspondent Anthony France. Their discussion includes the Labour mayor’s record on law and order, his Tory rival Susan Hall’s policies, police numbers, and the effectiveness of stop and search. We also feature a special investigation and film commissioned by ES Magazine focussing on Londoners impacted by the capital’s knife crisis. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
