Migrant crime toll rising

[Urien 10]

Can't understand how people can go on defending immigrants. They must have a perverted Left-Wing agenda or be seriously blinkered.

I cant remember the source but I have read recently that overseas workers are twice as likely to be killed in construction site activities as british workers.

 

Although nothing to do with crime but goes to show that importing workers is not always a cheap option.

thought this would interest people who say the migrant crimewave is a myth.

the cost to the police force is massive.

 

Rubbish. You haven't read the article. Are you suggesting we let off people who can't speak English, or what?

[spartacus 10]

...proportion has risen quite dramatically in recent years, coinciding with the Labour government's abandonment of tough immigration controls.

 

Maybe, m'lud, these statistics are part of the reasons for Jacqui Smith's office rigorously pursuing Damian Green.

Hmmmm 'Migrant crime toll rising'

 

Nowhere is the Star's article does it say that the number of crimes is rising, just that the time taken to process non english speaking crims is three times longer.

 

Of course, with the influx of immigrants the crime rate is bound to go up pro rata, which should be dealt with, but as usual the Star prints an article designed to induce hate.

 

"migrant crime toll rising" is the headline, the article explains that clearly.

They never can speak English when arrested,but they can when collecting their benefits.

So the article makes a few good points, but the OP isn't supported in the statement about a crime wave, the article makes no mention of increasing levels of crime.

[tis me 10]

that's the point we have our own criminals without importing any more

We import nothing but.

Who with any common wants to come here?
