In 1995, the then Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Paul Condon, reached out to predominantly Black community leaders and MPs through a open letter. He expressed concern about the notably high rate of muggings attributed to young Black men, who constituted 70 percent of the offenders in London.
What was the response to his letter? To accuse him of racism.
Fast forward to recent years, London has witnessed a surge in violent crimes. There was a significant 59 percent rise in sexual offences between 2021-22, marking an all-time peak. Muggings have increased by 56 percent between 2015 and 2018 while robberies rose by 73 percent. Knife crime also hit unprecedented levels in 2022, with only a fraction, one-sixth, being resolved. Furthermore, the London Assembly disclosed that 61 percent of knife-related homicides were perpetrated by individuals from the Black community despite only constituting 13 percent of the population.
Youth crime has also become a significant concern. Incidents involving large groups, predominantly of Black youth, engaging in activities like store looting have become common in the capital. Additionally, London has experienced an unprecedented number of teenage homicides, with the overwhelming majority of the accused being from the Black community. Across the country, Black and Asian youths constitute the majority of young offenders and in London, they are two-thirds of the children arrested.
What is the state of violent crime in London today?
Following a recent request under the Freedom of Information Act, I obtained the relevant data for 2022. Asians are underrepresented across all categories, so the primary focus will be on the Black demographic (constituting 13.5% of London's population) and the White demographic (making up 53.8% of London's population). It's important to highlight that almost one-third of White residents in London are not of British origin, encompassing Albanians, who represent the most extensive crime network in the UK and are hugely overrepresented in the prison system (shockingly, 1 in 100 Albanians are currently in prison).
Homicide Offences
Offenders
White: 29.12%
Black: 59.34%
Blacks are arrested for homicide at a rate 8.12 times higher than Whites. To put this in context, men are only nine times more prone to commit murder compared to women globally. Additionally, within the Black community, there's a 36 percent higher likelihood of being a homicide offender than a victim. In contrast, the White community has a 25 percent higher chance of being a victim than an offender of homicide. It’s worth noting that homicides perpetrated by non-White groups are more likely to occur in the street, whereas White homicides tend to be located in domestic settings.
Gun Offences
Offenders
White: 26.42%
Black: 64.15%
Blacks are arrested for gun offences at a rate 9.68 times higher than Whites. The rate of victims aligns with the rate of offenders.
Knife Offences
Offenders
White: 36.50%
Black: 47.40%
Blacks are arrested for knife crime offences at a rate 5.18 times higher than Whites. The data shows that 75 percent of the victims of knife crime are unidentified, so we will not be drawing conclusion from this data.
Robbery Offences
Offenders
White: 32.58%
Black: 52.86%
Individuals from the Black community are arrested for robbery offences at a rate 6.47 times higher than those from the White community. Additionally, Black individuals are 320 percent more likely to be the perpetrators rather than victims of robbery, while White individuals have a 16.34 percent higher likelihood of being victims compared to being offenders.
Sexual Offences
Offenders
White: 48.15%
Black: 29.58%
Individuals from the Black community have a 2.45 times higher likelihood of being arrested for sexual offences compared to those from the White community. Moreover, Black individuals have a 65.44 percent increased probability of being perpetrators rather than victims of sexual crimes. In contrast, White individuals are 13.05 percent more likely to be victims than to be the offenders of such crimes.
Violence Against the Person Offences
Offenders
White: 48.56%
Black: 33.02%
Individuals from the Black community are 2.71 times more likely to be arrested for "Violence Against the Person" offences compared to those from the White community. Additionally, Black individuals have a 91.87 percent higher likelihood of being perpetrators rather than victims in these types of crimes. On the other hand, White individuals have a 31.42 percent increased probability of being the offenders in such incidents.
These remarkable statistics can in part explain why so many British people are abandoning the capital and moving to the South Coast. Additionally, there's a noticeable lack of recognition of this issue, with even fewer suggestions for genuine solutions. Both The Macpherson Report and The Casey Review have labelled the Metropolitan Police Service as institutionally racist. The proposed remedy seems to be a lenient approach towards groups responsible for the majority of crimes.
In the post-Floyd world, where minority groups are pandered to, we can only assume it will get a lot worse.
For Robberies and Knife crime it was actually closer to 95% for IC3s as we called them. The government made the Met reduce the number by using only those incidences where the victim could identify the offender. So if attacked from behind, a hoodie worn or dark or where a particular offender from amongst a group couldn't be identified then the race was not included. It was a statistics game. Police knew the gangs involved and where they operated and their MOs... They always water down the stats for BAME offenders and find any means of increasing the rate for Whites - a mixed race offender, or anyone with less than black skin, even if they identify as black, is now recorded as White.
THESE BLACK INFILTRATERS NEED TO BE SENT BACK HOME. THE USA KEEPS V GOOD CRIME STATS. IF YOU REMOVED BLACKS FROM THE USA THE CRIME RATE WOULD BE THE SAME AS SWITZERLAND - REMOVE THE WHITES AND THE CRIME RATE IS THE SAME AS THE CONGO,
