AIBU to think migrant sex crime data should be published? And to wonder why Labour are blocking the release of that data?

Labour Blocks Release of Migrant Crime Data

'Victims of serious crimes and their families have joined forces to demand that the Labour government publish detailed data on offences committed by foreign nationals, accusing ministers of withholding information that is “clearly and legitimately in the public interest”.

Among the signatories are victims of high-profile sexual offences and families of murder victims. One signatory is a 14-year-old victim of a sexual assault in Epping allegedly committed by an illegal immigrant, in the same Essex town where asylum seekers were housed at the controversial Bell Hotel.
Fiona Goddard, a survivor of rape-gang grooming who has campaigned publicly about her experiences, has also signed the letter.

Eight relatives of Rhiannon Whyte, a hotel worker murdered by a Sudanese national, are also among those backing the demand.'

Yep, best to not rise to it.

Shows who we're dealing with though. Thankfully they're obviously in the minority.

Actually, I do.
Mass, illegal immigration into the EU is only going to accelerate.
Once in the EU a lot of them make their way to the UK, and add to the burden on the state.
Solutions need to be found.

I don’t think Labour will have the public on side, 77% vote on here. It’ll ramp up after the appeal whether they win or lose.

Nobody said anything about violence. Seems that you are the fantasist here.

I think they are and they know it.

Hence the desperation.

Some of the posts are unbelievable.

Ok, one odd person wants to hear fantasies of violence. I suppose that's what PMs exist for, the like-minded to get together.

Just ignore them.

Best thing for them.

It's currently a poll lasting 6 days with 611 votes that is in your favour by roughly 75% in favour.

Hardly a resounding representation of what the public thinks.

616 arrived by boat in the last two days

4000 since Burnham became PM.

😆Spoken like a parent

Anyway we can always start another thread if this one fills up. Linking back to this one. no big deal is it

And according to the migration observatory report Migrants and Crime dated 18 August 2026 this is no higher than expected and in line with the general population-

Most offences never lead to a conviction, so actual rates of offending among different groups in the population are unknown. However, non-UK citizens made up 13.1% of people given cautions or convictions in 2024, and 12.1% of the prison population in June 2025. This was roughly similar to their share of the adult population.

The available data suggest that non-citizens were more likely to be convicted or incarcerated for drug offences and less likely for violent offences, compared to British citizens.

As of 27 May 26 Commons Library report 10.7 million people were living in the UK who were born abroad which is 16% of the total population.

The same migration observatory report specifically states that in 2025, 1,181 foreign nationals were convicted for sexual offences which account for 15.4% of all sexual offence convictions. (See chart screen shot)

which again is in line with the general population and shows no added risk of sexual assault due to being a foreign national.

True

😁

This is just going to continue and continue.

It’s frightening because there’s just no political will to stop it.

This is going to be a bigger problem for Burnham, guitar playing TikTok won’t cut it.

I know; the ‘we have our own rapists in this country’ and ‘its always men’ argument makes no sense to me whatsoever.

That makes sense and is broadly what you'd expect to see especially re drug offences. I wonder what the make/female split is on those?

It also cements my view that people are being fed an entirely false narrative around asylum seekers which is understandable if you think about whose interests it serves to distract a population by demonising another group of people while presenting this quite extreme ideology as common sense. It seems to come not just from traditional media but also from big tech companies via social media. It's not hard to see why.

How have the figures on boat arrivals changed in the last five years?

Thats awful 😖 😱

Every day. boats are much bigger too. Any lull is purely weather driven.

The suffragists, abolitionists, environmentalists, feminists and peace activists were considered loons. If that’s what you want to call us, then so be it.

Don’t bite people…don’t bite.

Ignore.
