    Chefs claim that it will mean that some meat will be lost when cutting but i am sure that there will be more ways arround it. However yes it will take more time and they might put prices up on meals with meat. However i dont mind paying 50p extra a meal to help save many lives.
    I wonder how much meat will be lost in cutting when the surgeons use the blunt scalpels.

    However, if you know of a surgeon that is using knives from the kitchen sink, please report him (Or her)

    you can kill people with anything.... you can even kill someone with a toothe pick. I see the British government as finding ways to try and limit murders, but wheter they like it there will always been murders as long as we have our fists.

    The only thing it will prevent is a spur of the moment / passion crime where somebody grabs a knife from the kitchen and attacks someone. Well, not prevent, but they probably won't die a painful death from it

    In the interets of truth if nothing else, this isn't actually a government initiative. It'd never get through parliament even if it was.

    If i recall correctly that situation is the precise one that the authors of the report are targeting.

    Bazza the Greek, moves like this are surely not one but five stepts to far in nanny state terms?

    What else would you do, replace Bonfires on the 5th of November with a great big light bulb? Hmm

    After visiting England in 2002 I came to the quick conclusion that without pointy knives you can't consume those breakfast rolls at the hotel in London that I was at.
