This kind of old fashioned “yeah but” liberal nonsense about things are no worse than the good old days, damages your credibility. Citizens of London are controlling the crime wave by modifying their behaviour and avoiding the areas dominated gangs, feral children, migrants working for organised crime, drug addicts, shoplifters and criminal professionals, who know that convictions are at record lows and custodial sentences are now too short to deter. Within this “zoo” it would be statistically unlikely that migrants were not committing at least 50% of crime as they are over 50% of London’s population. The reality is that it is higher. You might ride a populist liberal wave with your denials but to ordinary Londoners your credibility is shredded by pieces like this. Why not show some courage and stature by admitting the problem?
