Even if the immigrants were more law-abiding than indigenous Brits, they are coming to a country which has a housing crisis, an energy crisis, massive pressure on our beautiful countryside, and services and infrastructure which are failing. And we are told to expect large-scale redundancies in several sectors due to AI and related technological change. Oh, and there's the issue of inter-communal conflict and the regular spectacle of political demonstrations due to events in countries which are nothing to do with us. And did I mention the likely effects on our economy of people with few or no skills? Or the erosion of British public standards such as queuing and putting litter in bins?

Well, there we have it. As the "far right" knew all along, we have also allowed criminality to spread unchecked. The government, BBC and other media, universities, and major institutions have been telling us that diversity is a great benefit. We were never consulted, were we, but they just went ahead and did it to us, and now the cat is out of the bag.

This isn’t about demonising people; it’s about the risks of a “hands-off” immigration approach that leaves law enforcement overwhelmed and the social fabric torn up. If newcomers are less than 10% of the population but account for up to 16% of convictions, we clearly need a change in course—or we’re just setting ourselves up for more social strain.

What’s wrong with demonising people?

I’m not sure this data is telling us much other than pensioners don’t commit crime.

Very few foreign nationals in the UK - something like 5% - are pensioners versus a quarter of UK adults and only around 2% of convicted criminals are pensioners.

Control for age and you’d no doubt find UK citizens are more likely to commit crime than foreign nationals of the same age

Who cares? It's happening. That's the demographic. You can mix the stats however you like. Girls are still getting raped.

Pensioners also don’t tend to rape & never have. So why the sudden recent spike in rape stats?

Not pro-rata by the look of the stats though, our friends from far away represent a small population currently but are significantly skewing the bell curves already.

I did some further analysis and it turns out that - as I thought would be the case, if you control for the differences in the age distribution by excluding pensioners, the data shows that British citizens are more likely to be convicted of crimes than foreign nationals

So, would it be correct to say if we cancelled the visas of the top 10 nationalities in each category and ensured they left the country, that we would free up a huge amount of court time, prison space, and that significantly less crime would take place, as well as potentially increasing conviction rates for crimes that still occur as police and court time would have been freed up? I think I would prefer to take the potential economic hit and just cancel the visas.

When you bring in vast amounts of people from countries where women have no value and any lone female or even male now is seen as an open invitation to rape then I don’t know what else expect.

Of course politicians are aware of the problems that bringing different cultures to live here in Europe would cause because the behaviour is so widespread within the original countries they come from. I mean in some African countries females wearing a bra acts as a deterrent to sexual assaults because it’s seen as a sign of wealth where the victim’s family will be able to afford legal costs to prosecute the perpetrators.

One of the reason politicians want these people here committing such heinous crimes against the people hosting them is to bring about never ending draconian laws and ever increasing control which the population happily accept or scream out for to stop the madness.

There’s literally no other reason to put foxes into a hen house like our governments keep doing knowing the foxes will attack/ kill as law breaking and disorders have never been allowed or put into practice as they’re doing at the minute

This is a skewed way of looking at the issue though. If you look at the underlying figures, the vast majority of crimes are still committed by UK nationals, just how much influence does the immigrants has on the number of crimes?

Those nationalities at the top have high %s but extremely small number of cases, many in single digits. They would usually be considered statistically insignificant, i.e. not reliable, due to the small sample size.

Either he doesn’t understand maths or he is intentionally lying.

Every single one about Afghans is off by a ratio of 10. 77 offences from 120,000 people is a rate of 6 out of 10,000 not 60 out of 10,000.

Every other number I checked was equally wrong.

Also this organisation doesn’t exist it’s just one guy.

That’s about 35,000 offences per year out of over 1.2 million. And you’re using conviction rate rather than the number of defendants. A number of police forces are known for their systemic racism: it wouldn’t be surprising if they pushed for foreigners to be prosecuted and turn a blind eye to Brits committing crimes. And, of course, foreigners may not get the best defence because of language issues, not knowing the system nor having the resources to pay.

It should also be remembered that some of these countries have much lower convictions than the known crimes would suggest, due to our 2-Keir judicial system that favours multiculturalism. It's time to REFORM government, parliament, and the Judiciary. Vote REFORM UK 🇬🇧

Can you explain how your "research" has total convictions for Albanian's at 7000 while having per 10000 conviction rate at 4000? Quick google search shows Albanian census at 2021 at 69000, so for this to be correct raw data should have Albanians at the top with 28000 crimes or per capita should be accordingly lower. Pathetic attempt at trying to pretend some sort of research company.

Because there is none, their source is their ass, that is why they don't list anything for sources.

That 553000 raped is much more than I thought!!! There are 6600 convictions approx but if you look at Sweden ; the figs show the number is 100 times greater because women don’t report
