video shows a dude attacking someone with a knife in london subway MP says "bring back train guards" everyone quote tweeting this is a british person incredulously saying "what could a guard do? against a knife?" i am reminded of our cultural differences https://t.co/NL78Qk5vmU https://t.co/h1cblnzuSS
