Reading this thread, my inner lawyer woke up, and I did a little cursory research. I can find nothing -- nada, zilch, rien -- about any "proposed" UK Violent Crimes Bill anywhere, let alone any provision of any such proposed legislation which would ban the sale of swords. If there are any criminal solicitors or advocates (lovely phrase) on Strathspey, would one of them tell me where I might find the text of the proposed bill? Or, if anyone else has detailed knowledge, please contact me. Just curious.
