In our fight against knife crime, it is imperative that we work with the social media companies, as some of this appalling crime is incited, organised and encouraged on their platforms. I therefore asked the Home Secretary about the use of suspending social media accounts as a tool to help tackle this dreadful scourge and the needless and tragic loss of life we are seeing. I further asked how his discussions with the social media companies were going, and whether he thinks that we need to look again at sentencing policy - I would argue longer sentences for carrying a knife would act as a greater deterrent. The Secretary of State agreed that this is an important issue, and further told me that late last year, he provided £1.4 million of funding for a new Social Media Serious Violence Hub, so that the Metropolitan Police can work with social media companies and specifically focus on this very issue. The Government will also shortly be publishing an Online Harms White Paper, which will also carefully look at this important issue.
