Require online knife purchases to be collected in-person from the Post Office.

Require online knife purchases to be collected in-person from the Post Office. — 46 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

We urge the Government to require the purchase of knives online to be collected in-person from the post office, with purchasers required to provide two types of ID, to help identify if people are providing false documents.

Additional details

We believe a lot of violence with knives comes from the use of kitchen knives. We think that this policy could help give police a better chance to prevent crime from occurring.
