Blair comments underline Labour's appalling record

12.00.00am BST (GMT +0100) Tue 1st Jul 2008

Responding to Cherie Blair's comments to the Home Affairs Select Committee on knife and gun crime, Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary, Chris Huhne said:

"Anyone would think that Cherie Blair was not in Downing Street while violent crime doubled.

"Labour's record on gun and knife crime is appalling. Young people do not feel safe on our streets but all the Government has done is to posture on penalties that are not enforced because the offenders are not caught."
