Idris Elba and Reading dad launch knife crime campaign
Available for over a year
The actor Idris Elba is calling on the government to immediately ban the sale of so-called "zombie" knives and machetes, to reduce the number of young people losing their lives. One of those joining the campaign is Reading dad Stuart Stephens - his son Olly was just 13 years old when he was murdered after a row on social media. The government said it remains "committed to further intervention measures". Photo credit: Dan Kitwood/Getty Images
