I don't recall saying they were given designer jackets as soon as they landed. They are certainly dressed better than me , that's for sure .

Its always going to play a part in certain areas though isn't it?

That's why I used a random place in Yorkshire, if knife crime is 80% white people but 90% of stop and search is non white people then there's an issue.

Not saying solely race, police will have gut feelings as well and will know their areas. I don't think there should be any sort of quota or anything but it will naturally be different depending on different areas.

I was mostly criticising the idea implied by some here that in such an area mostly with people who aren’t white, that any white people who were there wouldn’t be searched.

Despite all the hot air around this more white people were stopped and searched in London in 2023 than any other demographic

I was going to post it being playful to stir the pot, but is there a breakdown to show if they were white immigrants and not to add fuel to any side of the argument, simply genuinely interested. Thx.

no I can’t find it. 33% of the stops had an outcome that resulted in a caution which seems a pretty successful rate to me

Statistica for the last two. I assume the source is official statistics. The first one is from the London mayor assembly report on knife crime

If what you were looking for existing mostly in cash businesses then what's the issue with targeting them?

tbf I looked through the whole report. Hardly half arsing it. You said your figures were from the report I found. Turns out they were from a 3rd party. Assume they scraped the data from the Excel published alongside the report. If you want to play the smart arse at least be a clear smart arse!

Don't disagree in theory. If someone's gonna chuck stats and information around though, given what the thread's about, asking about the source (if it's not given) and checking it out is probably a good idea.

and given that I doubt any of us live in the places being talked about, data and reports are probably worth a look if we're gonna share opinions on those places and the issues that exist in those places.

I certainly have lived in such places and other places I have lived in now are places I would not want to live in.

Simplification and distortion of the complex reasons behind these stats (if exact/true) Grendel and you unashamedely know it too. You are just grooming the ring wing simpletons just like Farage and Stephen Yaxley-Lenon do, with a great big cheesey smirk on your face. Weird hobby you have and I cannot fathom why you get self gratification out of it as you strike me as being relatively bright. Maybe because you are a especially partial to mass debating on this forum?

I don’t see why you question them and make absurd comments Charles.

They are from a mayoral assembly report and part of a motion to deal with knife crime. The proposals were from Sem Moema who wanted a commission to look at dealing with knife crime in the black community she represents.

It was supported by Sean Bailey so was a cross party proposal from two senior black officials on the London Assembley who were concerned and the massive decline of stop and search among other things which they saw as factors in non protecting innocent victims of knife crime.

Own goal Charles there I am afraid.

Nice try but you knowingly missed my point through your deflection obsession. Wasn't questioning. the validity of the statistics, just the distortion and motivation for posting the selected stats. Come on Grenners, you are better than that. You need to up your game and work harder to cover up your prejudice as its painfully obvious why you put this stuff up.
Stop and search and knife crime is complex and nowt to do with the colour of people's skin.
Pop the link to the report on here and the free thinking open minded folks can choose whether to read the report and draw their own unbiased opinions.

I have zero prejudice. You questioned if the stats were “exact/true” by the way

You are one of the most biased posters on here and make several unsubstantiated allegations to anyone whose opinion you object to.The irony -as I have already pointed out Charles - is that stop and search is at it lowest. It was a huge part of London strategy under the Blair government. You remember Tony don’t you? The same Anthony Charles Lynton Blair who considered created internment camps on a remote Scottish island to send immigrants entering the uk.

I’m not stirring any stuff up. The proportionality of this crime in this one city is impacting and being perpetrated by one community. This isn’t a racist comment it’s just facts. What I do not agree with is not quoting facts in what is supposed to be a discussion and then have some suggestion of a murky agenda - especially given it’s politicians from that very community who WANT the situation discussed and acted upon

Culprit known to Asian or African mother and her family! Seems she a strong confident person in the tributes from neighbours/friends,!
On making assumptions that could be code a son or boyfriend gone berserk if we want to speculate, I think I'll wait for more detail!

No idea who did it but something really needs to be done about knife crime.

Its ok rushing people through court who post online but get knife crime under control.

Going for easy targets is embarrassing, get the knobs posting online doing community service and some graft rather than prison and hit knife crime hard.
