From: "D.F.Mallard", [EMAIL PROTECTED] Noticed this on ceefax today (11-1-01): Handgun crime increases despite ban Crimes involving handguns have grown by more than a third - despite the ban on the weapons in the wake of the Dunblane massacre five years ago. Latest Home Office figures show there were 3700 offences involving handguns from March 1999 to March 2000 in Wales and England; 42 people were killed. Handguns were used in more than 2700 robberies and over 200 burglaries. The figures - the highest for years - came in a written parliamentary answer. Regards Mally Any comparison with the letter from Charles Clark?
