Thanks Matt - one wishes these graphs would appear on every ad hoarding in the country and be displayed on the side of every bus! Yes, I know….dream on…

But even if that were the case, what would it change? Would those who can do something about it suddenly pretend to be shocked and actually do something? One has at some point to face the fact that even though most may not have the exact figures, they pretty much suspect crimes of all kinds have continued to substantially increase since the door to the UK was left wide open at least two decades ago. What's been the result? Only more of the same. "THEY" clearly want it, for whatever nefarious reasons. So, what do you think providing exact information is going to achieve?

It helps to support a groundswell of opinion Alexei, in a way that counters the charge of misinformation, to a significant extent. No it won’t make those responsible for policy ‘suddenly see the light’, of course not. The policy makers are entrenched in their opinions and will not move. However it’s a bit like turning a tanker around….information often works a drip at a time

Matt, a quick question. Do you know how they defined 'British'? Because if it included 2nd generation immigrants from the lands of those nations near the top then that may well skew the results further.

Agreed, these results would be insightful because it will further bust the notion of "diversity is our strength" and show that we are not an integrated society and that even the British citizens of immigrants are not espousing British values. Unfortunately I believe that the MetPolice do not record demographic or religious or immigrant status. But if we just take the information gleaned from the grooming rape gangs we can make a pretty good deduction and this is further evidenced because one can see how low the Pakistani nationals are on the full lists provided. In these charts they would be classified as British nationals.

The police are part of the problem. Headline from January this year:

"The vast majority of grooming gang offences are carried out by white men, the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) has said".

Gang based child abuse (outside families and institutions) in 2023 was recorded as 70% white and 7% Pakistani. This is the basis for the police statement and headlines, seized upon with glee by the liberal establishment and media.

BUT the police failed to mention that they only recorded the ethnicity of a third of suspects. So the true figures were 66% unrecorded, 23% white and 2% Pakistani. This begs the question, why did they fail to record so many suspects' ethnicity and was there any pattern in whose ethnicity the police were unwilling to record?

This police mis/disinformation is widely quoted by those who want to hush up the activities of the gangs, which in turn enables them to continue their abuse.

Just read a post by Steynonline, - rather long on this months politics so rather than posting whole article am C&P this part. It exclamation making! ….

‘ Farage has canceled more right-wing careers [ ]

That's true. Another tweeter got Grok to list them:

Rupert Lowe, Ben Habib, Howard Cox, Catherine Blaiklock, Alex Stevenson and 11 other councillors, Andrew England Kerr, Louis Stedman-Bryce, Michelle Ballantyne, Annunziata Rees-Mogg...

And more:

Suzanne Evans, Patrick O'Flynn, Alan Sked, Neil Hamilton, Gerard Batten...

As Morgoth subsequently observed, every one of those Nigel has had cancelled is to his right. So the principal effect of Gatekeeper Farage is, under cover of the hail-fellow-well-met saloon-bar routine, is to mire the British right in defeatism. His assertion that "if we politically alienate the whole of Islam, we will lose" implicitly accepts that it is now too late for the UK to challenge the demographic ascendancy of Mohammed - just as his earlier remarks about the inevitability of a "united Ireland" applied the same thinking to his so-called parliamentary allies in the Traditional Ulster Voice, not to mention supposed friends [ ] Kate Hoey and Arlene Foster.

He does that to everybody: [ ]’

Lately, Farage that we thought and presented as if totally committed to deporting, returning illegals as a proactive policy, he now muting this expected policy. Is it because the money person, chairman is of immigrant background, of the religion that majority of illegals from around the world are also? If so it demonstrates how U.K. will never get anywhere near returned to our ethnic culture and all that has grown out of this and appropriate for our character. ….. Our laws and punishments insufficient for louder, more manic national characteristics even when they 2#, 3# generation here when get into crime or macho hits in teens. Another is religion can lead on culture, then crime as parts of culture not compatible with western culture. Which why the religion of criminal should be in the stats as unless is we cannot adjust addressing of failure of laws and turnaround for criminal.

I believe the Social Democratic Party has a policy on the humane slaughter of animals. I was speaking to an old country man recently. When he went shooting with his late father, he had been told never to shoot unless he could be sure of a clean kill. Concern for animal welfare is part of our culture and tradition.

The British establishment is the problem, not the solution. They have enabled this and covered it up for decades. We must remember too that many of the grooming gang offenders will be recorded as "British".

The British establishment says:

Diversity is our strength

We can't afford to alienate Islam

Large scale deportations are impractical and not our ambition

Farage says the same thing as the 'British Establishment'. The good thing is that Lowe and Habib are now going to start a New Party financed by Musk that will expose Farage as the anti-democratic political fraud he is so clearly showing himself to be. Listen to the Dan Wooton Podcast interview with Lowe from yesterday for the facts - or read the detailed report in today's Times newspaper.

Badger, your posts are on the ball. What are your thoughts please?

I cannot for the life of me understand why 4 million are holding the entire British establishment including Reform to ransom like this. Surely integrated moderate muslims would welcome pernicious criminals removed from their midst so as not to be tarred by association?

Thanks for asking.

There are particular problems with Islam but some of these problems have I think been boosted by the western liberal establishment. Our elites pander to Islamic fundamentalists and ignore moderate voices; and they welcome large numbers of the worst people from the Islamic world. There is a very good podcast on YouTube by a woman called Candid with Lubna who presents the moderate minority viewpoint.

I think that in every culture there are people of good will, some of whom take inspiration from their religion and a sense of sprituality, and others who will twist and abuse religious teachings. In Europe we had the burning of witches and heretics. There are references supportive of genocide by God's chosen people in the Old Testament.

I am not saying that every religion is the same. Although not religious, I think there is real value in our Christian heritage in the west and I do see this as better than other faiths.

Our elites like to use racial, religious and sexual minorities as weapons against a society and culture they hate. It is dangerous for any minority group to become too large or influential, particularly when the elite try to set them against the majority.

Which party has a policy to deal with this? Not the uniparty and that seems to include Reform these days. Tice has expounded his 'one in, one out' immigration policy - i.e one Brit out, one muslim (or similar) in - and Farage is implacably opposed to deportations on the grounds of impossibility as the numbers are too large. As one commentator parodied this: In 1940 would he have said we cannot possibly take on the Lufftwaffe as they are too large?

It may seem flippant but the existential threat from immigration is very real. No matter the difficulty the task is necessary: giving in to the Lufftwaffe or to immigration have the same destructive consequence.

It is said that disguising the real policy is electorally necessary. Except the evidence for Reform wanting to correct the demographic imbalance and growing threat is lacking. Their one MP who was clear about what to do has been thrown out. And policies not in a manifesto are subject to challenges and obstruction that policies in a manifesto are not. So if Reform are opposed to larger scale deportations then they mean it.

If foreign criminals were deported, if all immigraion from incompatible cultures were stopped, if full and rigorous vetting of immigrants were implemented, if only economically productive immgrants were accepted including no state support for the extended families currently allowed in, the problem would still not be solved.

Islam has displaced Christianity in the public realm as Ramadan is celebrated from the King downward to every major retailer in London. The Ramadan lights in London, lit up by Sadiq Khan to great ceremony are vastly more than the miserable effort he put in to Christmas. Halal meat is unbiquitous in the NHS, schools and elsewhere. Labour are exploring ways to protect (ie. enhance the status of) muslims.

The data on school children, with Mohamed and variations on spelling being the most numerous boys' names now, show that the growth of Islam, a religion of immigration, is destined to dominate in one or two generations. Sharia courts are already established and growing.

The tepid responses to mass immigration - borders will be controlled, gangs smashed yada yada - are no more than putting a lid on a petri dish already infected. The result, of spreading infectious takeover, is the same whether there is a lid or not.

Perhaps Reform's more aggressive stance on net-zero is worth it alone, We will be a little less impoverished than if the other uniparties remained in control. But, the petri dish that is the UK will still be overrun.

Data on just how bad things are keeps coming. Well, I suppose it is a good thing that some in the middle classes catch on to what working class communities have known for quite some time. What difference that makes, if any at all, beyond more public ain't it awful chatter, remains to be seen.

Personally, I do not need more data. I need policy that gets to the root of the problem and that isn't about the next next boat load of savages. It's not even about ending the thousands of abused girls seeing their rapists released back into their communities (though ending that is a good in itself).

Islam is not an English religion. Perhaps it is too late to stop, but do we die trying or not?

I once thought Farage allowed Lowe to take a more determined stance on x with his tacit approval intending to adopt the ideas later. It is clear that was wrong.

Connor Tomlinson wrote an excellent article for courage media.

https://courage.media/2025/03/10/reforms-lowe-blow/

Many are now talking of civil war. A return to Christianity is the natural antidote. I can only hope a new party evolves or Farage ultimately steps down with another leader making the changes. Almost too late.

Islam is set to overtake Christianity numerically worldwide very soon, and the deficit is only because of Latin America not the West. With the best will in the world, Islam has two serious problems for the modern secular world. Firstly, the Koran is literally the word of God as dictated to Mohammed by the angel Gabriel. This means it is very difficult to modernize Islam since any deviation from the Koran is disagreeing with Allah. Christianity has a little more leeway since the apostles, about whom we know little, wrote some time after Christ's death. And Saint Paul was not in direct contact with Christ and so his views can be contested as 'opinion'. Secondly, Islam historically seems to have no concept of 'conscience'. A Christian priest will (and has in my case) recommended the follower to "consult his or her conscience" as conscience can be "the voice of God communicating to you". Islam means literally 'Submission' and has tended to be a rule based religion like orthodox Judaism whereas Christ (deliberately) gave very few specific rules of conduct. Apparently, Mohammed himself did mention 'conscience' in the Hadith, the Sayings, but I know of no mention in the Koran itself. This is a problem since the devout Moslem will consult a Koranic expert as to whether such and such a behaviour is 'haram' (forbidden) or permitted, and since the most strident, though maybe not the most numerous, Moslems today are followers of the puritanical Wahaddi tendency, all this is not good news. There are 'good' Moslems naturally but their voices are suppressed and I have met Moslems who have even stopped going to their local mosque because they found the 'message' disseminated there by the politically active worshippers and/or the imam as objectionable.

It doesn't have to be this way. In the 1990s my late grandma spent years in a nursing home cared for by local English nurses and carers. This also had the advantage that there was no cultural or language gap between elderly people and those looking after them. Our increasing dependence on immigrant labour has been a deliberate policy choice, not an inevitabilty.

With the Reform route looking wobbly, would it be a good idea to develop alternative political routes?

Maybe form an all-party group (APPG) and identify friendly people in parliament. Then do an inquiry...and get the members to ask parliamentary questions.

Alternatively, work with Rupert Lowe to create a manifesto?

Thank you, Matt and the people responsible for gathering this information. Can we now have a sensible conversation about the brutal treatment of a man who has been trying to get something done about the torture of young girls by foreign immigrants for many years? The man who has been telling the truth, only to be villified, imprisoned on trumped-up charges and put into solitary confinement - supposedly for his own safety since the authorities are so unable to control the immigrant inmates. For some reason almost no-one has the courage to even talk about this matter. They make excuses about what he did as a young man - he was 17 when his cousin was taken by a Pakistani rape gang and he tried to get police help. They refused and also refused to support British veterans who returned to Luton after duty abroad and were mobbed by Islamists. If more people would do their research (all on YouTube and X) and be honest with themselves I think they would be surprised. More that 150 million people have watched "Silenced" on X. It's time to get the truth.

We do know Tommy Robinson's plight, Sandra, and the fact that the entire state apparatus are not only against him, but against you, me and most of the readers on this site. Thank my Christian God that Musk is funding his legal costs. Why isn''t a home grown millionaire doing so? There are so many battles out there, it is exhausting.

The only way we will start to get a solution to these is by joining and voting for Reform UK. It's not perfect and as a member for 5 years I am annoyed about the current spat between Farage and Lowe, but it is our best hope.

Balderdash, I'm joining you in thanking God for Elon Musk's help for Stephen. I was one of the millions who swallowed the media and establishment lies about him. I didn't even think about him ( other than as "that football hooligan and thug").

For some reason, not so long ago, I started to watch the videos about him on YouTube. I was so prejudiced and suspicious about him that I actually felt GUILTY about even watching them! But as I watched I realised that the truth was the very opposite of what I expected. In spite of his early misdemeanours (as a very young man - and how many young men get forgiven and a second chance...?) I see him now as the bravest man in the UK.

For me he is the "spirit level" against which I measure how "straight" our so-called leaders and elected representatives are. Their reaction to the enormous injustice meted out to Stephen tells me everything I need to know about how 1) trustworthy and 2) courageous they are. There are many who have fallen by the wayside....

I'm no longer young and I'm afraid for my children and grandchildren in the UK. This is a time when we all have to speak up. We must support the good, honest people with integrity. I believe God is listening and watching. 2 Chronicles 7:14 is His promise to us. I voted Reform and believed this was the provision we looked for. I've been doubting that for some time now, since Tice and Farage expressed disgust about Stephen and "that lot" of whom I'm honoured to call myself one. This latest stunt against Rupert Lowe confirms my doubts. I now feel that we have been given a clear warning in time for something new to emerge. For that we must be grateful.
