@thisispeterlong Last year, the Home Office introduced a voluntary agreement for retailers around knife sales. Tesco were among the first to sign up to this. One of the key objectives is to ensure that knives are safely displayed and packaged securely. I hope that helps. Regards - Donald 3/3

Our mission to halve knife crime requires a radical and holistic approach. Yesterday I met with key retailers and suppliers to discuss how we can increase the manufacture and sale of rounded knives. We are listening and we will stop at nothing to save lives.

We were not invited to meet with The British Retail Consortium and Diana Johnson DBE MP 🇬🇧🇺🇦🌈 but as we met with the Home Office just days before, and the fact they were discussing the very thing we have been campaigning for, the big hope is that they talked about Tracy's Law and a safer way to sell knives

Signature of the voluntary agreement but selling knives for 99p... what are you doing @LidlGB ? Thank you to one of our followers in Bristol but how on earth are they allowed to sell these weapons so cheaply? And there is a deal on buying two! #nopointknives #tracyslaw

From today, under Ronan's Law, ninja swords will be banned nationwide - with thanks to Pooja Kanda, who campaigned tirelessly in her son’s name, refusing to accept any more lives lost to violence. This is a vital step in delivering our mission to halve knife crime in a decade.

We were in Sheffield yesterday and passed a construction site that had "knife crime Matters" and a bleed kit... what a great idea using temporary hoarding for this. Well done Henry Boot @sheffieldchildrens and Sheffield Olympic park, and everyone involved #nopointknives

After our survey of @tesco in Brixton showed they do not sell knives, our followers have been about to confirm @aldiuk in Ramsgate, and @morrisons in Petts Wood also have stopped selling knives. Maybe our campaign is starting to have an impact. What do you think? #nopointknives

We nearly praised IKEA UK for selling knives in a cabinet just like Tracys Law... but there's a shelf of knives for Sale below! This is against the voluntary agreement; no advertising of age restrictions, no point covers, no security tags and access to these are not restricted.

Well done @Vinted for updating your T&C on the 8th (in line with Ronans Law) to add Sharp knives, kitchen knives and knives with more than one cutting edge onto their "what you cannot sell" list... but there's a few still being sold, how do we report? #nopointknives #vinted

Credit to Vinted, they updated their T&C in line with Ronans Law to ban the sale of Knives, then it was noticeable that a few had slipped through... we reported these and with in 24 hours the knives were removed from App 👏 #ronanslaw #vinted #nopointknives #stopsellingknives

Today we are on our way to @owensworldfoundation Anti knife crime summit, and we are due to give a speech too... wish us luck #nopointknives #owensworldfoundation #antiknifecrime #tracyslaw #pointless

Over and over again, @lidlgb argument is that "we follow all legal requirements " That's the problem with the voluntary agreement on selling knives safely is that it isn't worth the paper its written on, retailers like Lidl just ignore it as its not legally binding.

A child found to have a knife at school. can we ask parents to: 1. Replace knives with rounded ended knives or 2. Move knives to a safe area, preferably locked away or 3. make sure you know how many knives you have. Would you notice if 1 was missing? kentonline.co.uk/medway/news/po…

We've had many followers telling us there's knives for sale through Tiktok shop, so we found a few and reported them... within 24 hours all of these have been removed as the Tiktok T&C. Do keep sending in your examples of knives being sold incorrectly #nopointknives #tiktok
