London murders: Diane Abbott urges knife crime crackdown after latest stabbing

Labour's Diane Abbott has called for an anti-knife crime strategy in London similar to that of Glasgow after a young man stabbed in Hackney brought the total number of suspected knife murders in the capital to over 50.

The victim, thought to be in his 20s, was found with fatal injuries by officers on patrol on Link Street, Hackney, just before 8pm on Wednesday.
