Next they will take their compass away so the boys can’t stay straight.

LOL.

Pretty soon they will be unable to have dangerous things like forks in the UK. Then clubs. When they have to eat with chopsticks, they will eventually have people poking out eyes with those, and chopsticks will be banned.

Silliness.

Who need knives anyway, when Great Britain’s gun crimes have gone up 400%. Bloody idiots.

I often take my two boy for hikes in the woods. We’ll drive to our starting point, at which time the boys have to show me their knives. If they don’t have a knife, they’re not allowed to go into the woods.

Matches or a lighter are the number two requirement. They can go in without matches, but it is discouraged.
