„Ich gehe zurück nach London. In vielen gefährlichen jetzt. Er hat Einwanderer, sie werden überall erstochen.“

quote „Police and courts crime data depends on offences being reported to the authorities; this won’t capture all instances of knife crime because some offences may not be reported. It is therefore useful to supplement this information with alternative sources such as NHS hospital data.“

I replied to your previous post titled in a similarly sarcastic way. I’ll do it again.

It’s great to look at stats. However, stats are meaningless if you don’t a) confirm the stats yourself, and b) derive your own conclusions instead of mindlessly accepting whatever conclusion is given to you. b) is especially important cause frankly even academic papers nowadays end up with conclusions that make the paper just look more impactful than it is. I’m someone in a very statistics-heavy field, and I guarantee you, stats can be coerced or presented in a way that paints a convenient picture. That goes both ways.

Anyway, regarding your post, if you look at the statistics here https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn04304/ you will see they tell a very different story. Some areas of London got consistently and significantly worse. Some obviously got better. Knife crime was especially bad in 2019. It got better but then it got worse again. And even if it’s not as bad as it was, in 2019, it does not mean that people should just accept it. People won’t judge safety based on how it was in the last 25 years. That’s irrelevant. Do you judge the quality of your healthcare by comparing it to 50 years ago? No, it doesn’t matter. It’s obviously better now. You care if it got better over the last 2-3 years. Same for crime. People will judge based on the last year or two.

Also: look at the measures being taken to combat this. The measures themselves and the fact that they are needed is not necessarily a good thing. Yeah maybe they are working. But do you really want to live in a city where we have to have signs to remind people to keep distance from the street when walking, to protect their belongings from being snatched by a motorcycle passing by? The measures themselves can create a feeling that the city is not safe. Simply comparing the yearly rates is useful, but also incredibly naive. You are completely ignoring the interventions taken and the side effects of those interventions

Further, look at additional types of crime. Rapes. Threats to kill. Sexual assault.

Reach your own conclusions

Read between the lines, less incidents treated in hospitals because there are less assaults needing treatment but more murders needing morgues

But isn’t it because the numbers are based per 100,000 or per million people?

So if you suddenly increased the population, the crime rate would suddenly drop.

One thing I can’t really stand is how people are saying how London is getting worse. London has always been a relatively bad place to live for hundreds of years already.
