This BBC item http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6964403.stm reports reaction to the Brown governments plans to “crack down” on gun crime with an amnesty, drop off zones etc. It then refers to “an independent charity”

“Meanwhile, an independent charity has suggested that Home Office figures show the numbers of children killed in recent years are falling. The Centre for Crime and Justice Studies found 63 children aged from one to 15 were killed in England and Wales in 1995, compared with 31 in 2005/06.
The director of the centre, Richard Garside, said the figures differed from the common perception, but it was too soon to say whether the recent spate of child killings would reverse the downward trend. He said the most significant rise in killings was among the 16 to 49 age group, up from 429 in 1995 to 513 in 2005/06.”

Now at first glance this appears to be a slight dash of cold water on the Tory reaction and the words “independent” and “charity” give the impression of detachment and neutrality but a quick google of Richard Garside produced this nugget http://pommygranate.blogspot.com/2007/05/fisking-richard-garside.html

Then have a look at The Centre for Crime and Justice Studies website and its publications http://www.kcl.ac.uk/depsta/rel/ccjs/pubs.html
…are there any little bells ringing?
