What is going on in the UK?

From cost of living, to survival of the white race and European culture. I think you guys might be real about one, and not the other.

I am sceptical of many crime statistics.

In many instances crime is not reported and even if it is, the identity
(and therefore immigration status) of the criminals is often unknown.

I suspect that there other reasons why there has been a crime drop
in some categories. I will give you some examples of my guesses why.


(1) The cheap availability of new goods, via Shein and Temu etc, means there is less
benefit in burgling and competing with charity shops etc, to sell stolen goods.

(2) A failure to prosecute rape means there is less incentive for it to be reported.

(3) Many younger people adopt a policy of not carrying cash, so pick pocketing
and mugging are less attractive.

(4) Roll out of CCTV and facial recognition may be having some impact at crime hot spots.

I could go on.

Anyway I won't pretend to have quantitative evidence to support my guesses.

All your points only address drops in the overall crime rate. However, this specific statistic shows that more immigrants does not mean more (reported) crime. If immigration caused crime, we would expect that more immigrants would result in more crime, wouldn't we? None of your points address that.

I am not making the argument that more immigrants simply means more reported crime.

And I have already explained why I am sceptical of the referenced statistics.

And looking further at the report, it is so heavily caveated, it is not sensible to conclude much from it.

If immigration caused crime, we would expect that more immigrants would result in more crime, wouldn't we? None of your points address that.

A point is if the population increases by 1% pa due to net immigration and the immigrant crime rate is
the same as the indigenous crime rate that would not result in an annual increase in crime of 1%, if
there are other changes going on that would have resulted in perhaps a 10% to 20% drop in crime rate.

So, out of those 7, and i'm sure there's more, how many Crimes were committed by British people during the same time? Or what the actual percentage of Asylum Seekers/Refugees who commit those kind of crimes. Those would be a worthy studies.

no you see, crimes by immigrants are somehow worse because
