British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s latest promised effort to combat violent crime has so far only resulted in him taking a virtual beating on social media.
Starmer announced via X that he was going to make good on his promise to ban ninja swords, and critics were far from impressed.
“Knife crime is at epidemic levels and is ruining lives across Britain. As Prime Minister, I’ll crack down on sales of these lethal weapons once and for all. When I announce a ban, you’ll get a ban,” Starmer posted in late January of 2024, along with an article from The Sun stating that ninja swords would be included in such a ban.
