Legalise regulated, non-lethal pepper spray for personal self-defence in the UK

Summary

Allow adults to carry approved low-strength self-defence sprays. Create clear rules on licensing, training, and lawful use. Ensure police guidance and strict penalties for misuse or illegal sales. Knife and violent attacks are rising, leaving people defenceless. Other countries safely allow regulated sprays to help people escape danger. The UK should trust citizens with sensible, non-lethal protection to deter attackers and save lives.
