IN 1996, Thomas Hamilton entered Dunblane Primary School and used pistols to kill 16 children and a teacher. As a result, the Government "banned" pistols.
In 1995, Timothy McVeigh blew up the Alfred P. Murrah building in Oklahoma, killing 168 people, including 19 children. Since McVeigh killed ten times as many people as Hamilton, so it must be vital that we outlaw his murder weapon.
So, Mr Blunkett, when will you introduce the "Weedkiller (Prohibition) Act"?
