Brexit leader Nigel Farage has called on the
government to release full statistics on migrant crime as is done in
countries like Denmark while maligning the Tories for opening the
country up to “mass criminality” through its open-door immigration
policies.
An analysis of figures published by the Danish
government statistician (Danmarks Statistik) on the proportional
criminal conviction rate of different nationalities between 2010 and
2021, was dominated by migrants from the Middle East and Africa, with
migrants from Kuwait, Tunisia, Lebanon, Somalia, Jordan, Uganda,
Morocco, Iraq, and Algeria topping the list. Comparatively, over 40
nationalities were more likely to commit crimes compared to their
relative population size compared to native Danes.
Responding to the figures, Nigel Farage has demanded that the British
government give a full accounting of immigration crime statistics.
While the government does provide some details, it is currently refusing
to release all data.
As previously reported,
some leading figures have noted this very closed position of the
British government compared to some European allies, who are much more
open and allow their voters to make up their own minds depending on the
facts, even when those facts sometimes make difficult reading. One such
is Conservative MP Neil O’Brien, who became something of a whistleblower
on the government hiding statistics he said are essential to informed
debate on the migration issue.
He said that, for instance, while the Home Office
collects data on the ethnicity of people arrested it refused to publish
data by nationality. The Home Office also refuses to reveal the
immigration status of prisoners, such as whether they entered the
country illegally or if they are asylum seekers.
Mr Farage said on GB News on Monday: “When you allow illegals to come
in and stay, the criminal gangs see richer pickings in our countries
than where they come from, in some cases where they might get their
hands cut off.
“We’ve opened the doors in Western Europe to mass criminality.
Denmark are brave enough to publish the figures. Sweden prohibits by law
the media even discussing the background or ethnicity of perpetrators
of horrible, violent or sexual crimes. And in this country, everyone
stays schtum. If you can’t get the figures, you don’t know the truth.”
Denmark are honest enough to publish true crime figures. What does this mean for our country, which is open to foreign criminal gangs? https://t.co/UncaIl64H2

The Brexit leader claimed that in large British cities like London,
women no longer wear expensive jewellery for fear of being robbed by
“bad guys” imported from other countries.
“I know that our critics will say we’re being racist.
We’re not. There’s a reason I put this out. We’re just representing the
facts; it is appalling,” he said.
Farage noted that many of the young male migrants flocking to Britain
come from cultures were “women aren’t even second-class citizens” and
where sexual exploitation and abuse against women is “mainstream”.
“And so we are prepared to allow British female citizens to suffer at
the hands of these bad people that come from these countries. Not all
bad people, from these countries, I reemphasize that point. We’d rather
shut up and let native populations suffer than tell the truth,” he said.
“It can’t be discussed as it’s too awful, it’s too difficult and of
course, it’s racist. Remember, anyone that discusses it is far right,
and therefore evil and bad and wrong.”
The Brexit leader, and honorary president of the populist Reform UK
party, suggested that one reason why the government may be reticent to
fully publish the full details on the relationship between migration and
crime would be that the “Conservatives poll ratings would tank even
from the current low levels because they’ve allowed this to happen under
14 years of their tenure.”
that the British public are more dissatisfied with the government’s
handling of immigration than at any point since prior to the Brexit
referendum, with just 9 per cent saying that they are content with the
government’s handling of the issue, compared to over two thirds who were
dissatisfied. Despite the government’s claims of clamping down on
illegal migration, more boat migrants have arrived on British shores so
far this year than in any other up to this point
