Good man!Abdullah, 29-year-old employee of a nearby coffee shop who risked his own life by grabbing the attacker and kicking the knife out of his hands. He might just have saved a little girl's life, and the life of the 34-year-old woman, with his brave actions.

Pernicious mental health crisis in this country / society.
How did we get here?
And how can we reverse it?
Notwithstanding whatever the cause of this attack turns out to be, when even a regulatory body as useless as the CQC says we've got a "ticking time bomb" with CAMHS then you know we're in trouble. I know there's all sorts of challenges at the moment but I think for everyone's sakes, this has to be prioritised.

Please, let's try not to be aiming childish abuse at other posters.
Like so many things Tory it is gaslighting or 1984 Newspeak... "Care in the Community".This , making people wait for a year or more to get an appointment at the hospital , like with most thing that are broken the tories have done this , now we are seeing the results
Another thing to thank Thatcher for, alongside Privatisation and selling off all the Council Housing

Good man. The mental gymnastics the neanderthals will be doing now.Abdullah, 29-year-old employee of a nearby coffee shop who risked his own life by grabbing the attacker and kicking the knife out of his hands.
