Noel Gallagher blames violent games for Britain's knife crime problem

Oasis' Noel Gallagher has blamed violent videogames as one of the reasons for the knife crime problem among Britain's youth.

Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, the song writer said that violent games desensitise kids from crime, which is "really, really scary," he said.

"I was up in Liverpool for a week a couple of weeks ago and even on the news there it's every single night," said Gallagher.
