Gareth Davies MP has welcomed today the new ban on machetes and zombie-style knives which will help to crack down on street violence and ensure that we keep our communities safe.
These weapons have no practical use and are designed to look threatening. Therefore they will be made illegal and sentences for sale and possession of these weapons will be strengthened to reduce the number of attacks.
Police will also be given new powers to seize and destroy knives found on private premises, making it easier to punish the criminals who use and sell these dangerous weapons making our streets safer for everyone.
