:02:11. > :02:15.of knife crime. Today in the Commons, the Prime Minister

:02:15. > :02:22.defended the Met's record. Our home affairs correspondent Guy Smith

:02:22. > :02:28.reports. He was robbed of his mobile phone and then stabbed in

:02:28. > :02:34.the leg, but, like his attackers, he too routinely carried a weapon.

:02:34. > :02:39.After I got stabbed, I went to my mum's house. My mum wiped it up and

:02:40. > :02:43.my sister sewed it. Didn't go to accident and emergency? No, just

:02:43. > :02:47.relaxed. Why didn't you go to the hospital? Don't want nothing to do

:02:47. > :02:51.with police. John, who is now 20, was involved in gangs in South

:02:51. > :02:54.London. He admits he's not completely innocent, but many are.

:02:54. > :02:58.The latest figures show overall knife crime increased in London by

:02:59. > :03:05.more than 8.5% between February and April this year, making 3,636

:03:05. > :03:08.victims. The Met Police is also concerned about rises in serious

:03:08. > :03:12.youth violence, burglary and robbery. That's why, with much

:03:12. > :03:16.fanfare, London's Mayor was recently out with officers in a new

:03:16. > :03:20.initiative to crack down on criminals. Today in the Commons,

:03:20. > :03:24.even the Prime Minister defended Scotland Yard's record on crime.

:03:24. > :03:28.It's early days, but there has been a drop in offences from week to

:03:28. > :03:32.week for the most serious offence, violence with injury, knife crime,

:03:32. > :03:35.street robbery and residential burglary. The fact is, they don't

:03:35. > :03:39.like to hear an answer when it shows the police are doing their

:03:39. > :03:43.job. But that doesn't go down well with others on the frontline. Take

:03:43. > :03:48.Jennifer Blake from Peckham, for example. She says she's won awards

:03:48. > :03:51.for her youth work, yet is now losing her funding. The figures are

:03:51. > :03:56.probably wrong anyway because, you know, young people are getting

:03:56. > :03:59.stabbed every day, and it's going unreported. Maybe if you double

:03:59. > :04:03.those figure, then you'll really get the real figure and an

:04:03. > :04:08.understanding that knife crime has gone up. For every one bad kid that

:04:08. > :04:12.makes a wrong choice, there are 20 kids on the same street making the

:04:12. > :04:17.right choice, but there is no youth clubs open. When we see the cuts,

:04:17. > :04:22.the youth sector has been decimated. The Mayor's office denies any

:04:22. > :04:25.direct link between funding for youth project answer crime levels,

:04:25. > :04:29.but that tackling violence on the streets is the number one priority

:04:29. > :04:32.and that the murder rate for teens has fallen in the last couple of

:04:32. > :04:35.years. An investigation is underway to

:04:35. > :04:37.find out how a Palestinian activist who's banned from entering Britain

:04:37. > :04:42.managed to walk straight through Heathrow Airport without being

:04:42. > :04:46.stopped. Police are reported to have finally caught up with Sheikh

:04:46. > :04:56.Raed Salah in London last night. He's the leader of the Islamic

:04:56. > :05:14.

:05:14. > :05:18.On Saturday, Sheikh Raed Salah got on a plane at Tel Aviv airport, one

:05:18. > :05:22.of the most secure airports in the world. A few hours later, he

:05:22. > :05:26.arrived at Heathrow, one of the other most secure airports in the

:05:26. > :05:29.world. His solicitor told me he was treated with every courtesy at

:05:29. > :05:34.Heathrow Airport and commenced on his well-publicised speaking tour.

:05:34. > :05:38.The first stop was Conway Hall in central London, then up north to

:05:38. > :05:42.Leicester where he addressed a group of 500 people. Tonight, he

:05:42. > :05:46.was due to speak here to a group of pro-Palestinian MPs, but it's not

:05:46. > :05:49.going to happen he has been detained by police because, it

:05:49. > :05:53.turns out, he is in fact banned from entering the country. The Home

:05:53. > :05:56.Secretary can exclude people from the country if their presence is

:05:56. > :06:00.deemed not conducive to the public good in some way, and today the

:06:00. > :06:04.Home Office announced a full investigation into how Mr Saleh got

:06:04. > :06:08.into the country without triggering any alarms at the UK Border Agency.

:06:08. > :06:11.But here is the thing - his solicitor told us today that

:06:11. > :06:17.neither himself nor his client actually knew he was on said list

:06:17. > :06:21.at all. No-one had any idea. He wasn't notified. We weren't

:06:21. > :06:24.notified, and we were left with the position of yesterday afternoon

:06:24. > :06:28.scrambling around trying find out whether or not he was on this list

:06:28. > :06:32.or not. So what happened? Short answer, we don't know. Long answer

:06:32. > :06:36.from a former head of security at Heathrow Airport. There are two

:06:36. > :06:41.options: one, the information wasn't in the database, or it was

:06:41. > :06:45.in part of the database but hadn't been joined up with the other parts,

:06:45. > :06:50.or secondly, the officer on the day was perhaps not as attentive as he

:06:50. > :06:53.should be. That's probably rare. What we do know is he was held here
