Gun crime is going up in Britain......another 25% with hand guns across the country.....42% in London alone.....and so Britain, after just having a gun turn in...is having another gun turn in....too bad they didn't just ban and confiscate guns 21 years ago so this problem would be solved....oh...wait....they did.....and criminals who need guns to victimize each other and law abiding Brits just keep getting more guns....

U.K. Begins Another Gun Surrender Initiative Amid Increase in Gun Crime

The United Kingdom's National Ballistics Intelligence Service (NABIS) is conducting a new gun surrender program from Nov. 13 to Nov. 26 after gun crime in England and Wales increased by more than a quarter in the past year.

The Office for National Statistics found a 27 percent increase in crimes involving firearms during its most recent review of crime data. Despite a near ban on the civilian ownership of handguns the review found crimes committed with handguns increased by 25 percent and accounted for the majority of gun crimes. The agency said the increases in 2016 were part of a multiyear trend.
