It's not just Britain, by the way. This is happening all across the West.

It's tough to measure immigrant crime in the U.S., because very few states track immigration status in their criminal justice system.

But Europe does. And the numbers are genuinely incredible. 🧵

Take Germany, for example—the country with the largest share of refugees in Europe.

Foreigners are just 12% of the German population. But they account for 67% of gang rape suspects.

Afghans alone are 70 TIMES more likely to be involved in gang rapes than Germans.

In Germany, foreigners make up just 13% of the population. But as a share of crime suspects, they are responsible for:

Homicides: 42%
Rapes: 37%
Assaults: 32%
Burglaries: 39%

That's especially true for certain nationalities—and for certain crimes.

In 2022, @RCInvestigates published a study of EU homicide data and migration rates from 2010-2020.

They found that "each one percentage point increase in immigrant population is associated with a 3.6 percent increase in the homicide rate."

Here's what it looks like in Sweden:

Immigrants and their children are 33% of Sweden's population. But from 2013-2017, they were 58% of all crime suspects.

For murder/attempted murder and manslaughter, they were a whopping 73%.

They were 2.2X more likely than natives to be suspected of rape. For murder, it was 4X.

In Denmark, non-Western immigrants and their descendants have an approximately 3.5 times higher rate of violent crime than native Danes.

Again, that disparity increases substantially when you break it down by nationality—even when you adjust for age, sex and year.

The same is true in Norway in Finland.

In Norway, immigrants from places like Afghanistan, Somalia and Iraq are over 3X more likely to commit violent crime, relative to the native population.

In Finland, that disparity is even higher.

In the Netherlands, non-Western immigrants make up 14% of the population. But as a share of crime suspects, they comprise:

Sexual offenses: ~35%
Assaults: ~40%
Violent thefts: ~60%

The disparity between natives and foreigners holds even after controlling for socioeconomics.

The euphemistically-termed "grooming gangs" issue isn't just in Britain.

A report published last year by the Dutch government found that almost three-quarters of perpetrators of domestic sexual exploitation were either foreign-born or children of foreign-born.

In Italy, government figures from 2022 show that nearly *half* of *all* youth crime is committed by the foreign-born—despite the fact that they make up just over 10% of that demographic.

The foreign-born share of crime in Italy jumped nearly 10X from 1990-2009.

In major European cities like Paris—which have been totally transformed by mass migration—the numbers are even more stark.

Paris has one of the largest concentrations of immigrants in Europe. 41% of Parisians under the age of 20 have at least one foreign-born parent.

In Switzerland, the foreign-born make up 26% of the total population. But as a share of crime suspects, they are:

Homicides: 44%
Rapes: 47%
Assaults: 45%

Afghan/Pakistani migrants are 3X more likely than natives to be convicted of a crime. Africans are 5X more likely.

In Austria, foreigners are responsible for 40% of all crime. In major cities like Vienna, they commit more than half of all crime.

And again—unsurprisingly—a few specific groups are punching way above their weight class.

Finally: In Spain, the foreign-born make up just 12% of the population. But as a share of crime suspects, they are:

Homicides: 32%
Rape: 39%
Armed Robbery: 47%

Foreigners are 3.6X more likely than native-born Spaniards to be accused of homicide, and 4.7X more likely for rape.
