He wants GPS trackers fitted to knives, unless you're going fishing 🎣 I think maybe he's the one fishing 😂

LOLz

I have around a dozen knives mainly kitchen ones.  I doubt I am unusual  I even have two lock knives

thats not counting the cutlery draw which has around 30.  I can't see a fish knife being much of a weapon

They are either monumentally stupid or just desperate to say anything in an attempt to get some attention, no matter what the topic.

What about all the knives already in circulation? I’m not sure if he knows it would be really easy to remove one from a knife either.

I’m also concerned for how he approaches the art of fishing. Surely a rod is used in most cases. Although I’d love to see people on the local canal fishing with a Bowie knife

What bad news is being buried under this comedy tweet?

Looking on the positive side, if a British company could manufacture all the trackers needed for all the knives being made it would be a great boost for the UK's GDP, and a good continuous market for them.

TBH I'm amazed he's not suggested that to go along with his harebrained scheme.

I read this kind of stuff in a Tim-Nice-But-Dim voice, inside my head.

John Redwood claims that no one has ever complained that there are no available dentists in his constituency.

I suspect (as I've been waiting two years now to have a tooth out) that this is because we all thing he's absolutely useless and not worth complaining to.

I’m really not quite sure what the government monitoring my cheese knife use would achieve.

Given how easy it is to make a good enough knife to be dangerous in a DIY fashion this would be incredibly pointless (no pun intended).

Well that's an old story..... almost 4 years old!

I'm sure that more bollocks must have been spoken by an MP since then.
