1/ Recent years have seen a surge in violent crimes in London:
• Sexual offences at all-time high
• Knife crime at an all-time high (with only 1 in 6 solved)
• Teenage murders at all-time high
• Increase in muggings and robberies

2/ After a FOIA request, we can observe the ethnic groups committing the majority of violent crime.
First let's establish the demography of London:
• 53.8% White*
• 20% Asian
• 13.5% Black
• 6.3% Other
3/ *It's important to highlight that almost one-third of Whites in London are not of British origin, including Albanians, who represent the most extensive crime network in the UK and are hugely overrepresented in the prison system (1 in 100 Albanians are currently in jail).
4/ Let's start with Homicide Offences
White: 29.12%
Black: 59.34%
Black individuals 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.
5/ 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
Blacks are arrested for robbery offences at a rate 6.47 times higher than Whites. Additionally, Blacks are 320% more likely to be the perpetrators rather than victims
9/ Sexual Offences
White: 48.15%
Black: 29.58%
Black individuals are 2.45x more likely to be arrested than Whites. Black community sees a 65.44% higher chance of perpetration, while Whites are 13.05% more likely to be victims
10/ Violence Against the Person Offences
White: 48.56%
Black: 33.02%
Black individuals are 2.71x more likely to be arrested for Violence Against the Person Offences than Whites. They're also 91.87% more likely to be perpetrators.
11/ 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
Two-thirds of youth arrested in London are non-White
2/ Derrick Peters lied about living in Grenfell and was put up at Kensington's Park Grand Hotel for free for 6 months.
During his stay, he was arrested for burglary but the judge let him off with community service, despite Peters' 40 previous convictions.
3/ Alvin Thompson claimed he helped people escape the building.
Thompson told doctors that he had recurring nightmares of seeing a small child at a window in the fire, flash backs to stepping over bodies and survivor's guilt.
First, anyone who claims the British looted $45tn immediately demonstrates that they haven't bothered to look into how the figure was ludicrously calculated.
2/ India's pre-colonial GDP was due to having a quarter of the world's population at a time when America, Australia, and most of Africa was in the stone-age.
However, Britain and much of Europe at the time had around double the GDP per capita.
3/ India was a top 5 economy throughout British rule, overtaking China.
India's had the 5th largest economy in 1945, above Japan/China/France.
India's economy fell as low as 17th in 1990, many years after independence, despite having second largest population in the world.
1/ A new working paper claims that non-EU migrants in Europe have a less negative fiscal position than natives - in other words, that they contribute more relative to what they receive.
Like every single one of these papers, the methodology is deeply misleading.
1/ You learn about these cases, then remember that the Home Office tried to deport a 7/7 bombing survivor and a man who can trace his British ancestry back to the 14th century.
This is the strange case of the deportation of Professor John Tulloch...
2/ Professor John Tulloch is a sociology professor who, after surviving the 7/7 terrorist attacks, was interviewed by newspapers such as The Guardian in 2007.
3/ Five years later, the Home Office and UK Border Agency (UKBA) seized his passport and demanded his deportation.
Why?
Because he was born in India during the British Raj, making him a "British subject without citizenship."
