Knife crime - a national crisis

The Alex Salmond Show begins a two-part exploration into the UK's “national crisis” of knife crime. We examine the Home Secretary’s latest initiative, copied from Scotland, on treating the issue as one of public health, curable and preventable; Alex we asks London Labour MEP Claude Moraes about the prospects for an all-party approach and speaks to community campaigner against violence Dr Mark Prince OBE, to see if any politician is offering real solutions that will impact at grassroots level.

Knife crime - a national crisis
Former First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond hosts a new political chat program, ‘The Alex Salmond Show’, on RT, where he vows to battle the mainstream media narrative and take the news “out of the Westminster nexus.” ‘The Alex Salmond Show’ will take viewers inside the Welsh, Irish and Scottish parliaments, also looking at the government of Northern Ireland, not forgetting Westminster.
