'This is an extreme world': Cardiff children taught how to defend themselves from knife attacks

He shouts at Tyreece at the top of his voice:"Give me your money, give me your phone, give it to me or my mate will stab you!""GIVE ME YOUR PHONE AND YOUR MONEY," James shouts even more loudly than before. He slaps the boy around the face.The knife class in Cardiff is 'about surviving' not fighting

Kate might seem like she is over-reacting, but after the summer that Cardiff has had, she could be forgiven.Three teenagers were murdered in as many months and people are nervous. Over the same period, nearly 20,000 police officers were cut across England and Wales and youth clubs and services withered due to lack of funding.It is a hot political issue in the run-up to the election.Boris Johnson wants to bring back 20,000 police officers in the next three years. Labour, however, is not planning as many, around 10,000. The Lib Dems want to spend a billion pounds on policing and youth services.

"At the moment, carrying a knife seems like the cool thing to do. Everyone wants to carry a knife. It's getting bad," he says."There's a kid on this street who is only eight. He has a knife. I'm not sure what more police will do. We don't see police here. It's not a policing issue, it a bigger community issue.

Anyone pulls a knife out on you, the first instance should be to turnaround and run as fast as you can in the opposite direction!!!

This is a sad reflection of society that this is happening. Politicians take note and address the situation before our kids are taken down this route.

Israeli krav maga!! Amazing, people still taking Israelis to teach them self defense!! Dispute the haters!!

This scares me , but having been attacked with a knife myself I can tell you it’s necessary. We have to be proactive and protect ourselves and our children if we can . It should never be a thing, but it is sadly a part of our daily reality and is everywhere .

The fact that this is even a thing shows you how on its arse this country is

Welcome to TORY FUCKING BRITAIN.

Call to tackle aggression against teachersEven one attack is too many, a teaching union says, calling for schools to display warning posters. Give/Train teachers with tasers. They won’t need to worry about aggressive behaviour then I bet, when the potentially unruly bunch are rattling around the ground in a pool of their own piss - in front of the rest of the class.
