If the statistics showed no link between Nationality and crime the government would have published without delay.

You’d certainly think that if the numbers backed up their narrative, they’d be shouting them from the rooftops

Yes, and given published data from the German and danish governments show high rates of crime from migrants we know what these figures will show.

I’m not surprised by this, I sent a FOI request to my local council to ask how much social housing has been given to “asylum seekers’, the answer I got was “ this is a government scheme for which we have no control over” or words to that effect.

So in short, my local council don’t know who they have living in social housing.

It’s remarkable how quickly the bureaucracy kicks in when a basic question gets asked! You'd hope a local council might keep tabs on their own housing stock, but "not our department" is always the easiest dodge.

If the housing is owned by the council they will know. If not then they nay not have them. Someone in central government will. It’s just another labour cover up.
