It is quite troubling that more than 1,600 Jamaicans lost their lives in 2017 due to crime. The police figures show that up to February 6, 2018, 156 people were killed since the year started.
While our security forces try their best to manage the State of Emergency in Montego Bay, we have seen brazen incidents of gunmen attacking and killing people in broad daylight.
Jamaica/London, black on black crime. It's cultural.

This on going destruction of Europe through immigration.
The systematic destruction of the Middle East: Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria. And now it looks like Russia is the latest target.
How can all this be put down to accident or misjudgement?

You can look back to overthrowing Saddam and then Gaddafi (which Hilary Clinton pushed for when Secretary of State) opening up the borders with only one logical way to go as not even that lot would want to settle in Africa.

It's difficult to know what the main post war event was that led to increased Muslim fundamentalism. It's a paradox of peace and hatred with a set of core values that are racist, homphobic and mysoginistic. Such that when those ideals are challenged, some resort to violence. My opinion is that it was the US governemnt's inferred betrayal of the deal it did with Indonesia not to allow it to continue it's mass genocide of Christians in East Timor in the 70s that started it all. The US was happy to turn a blind eye and keep to the deal, but the Western press in other countries made certain it couldn't. It took over 2 decades to pay them back, but 9/11 was mainly because of that.

50-100 years ago the UK was also racist, homophobic and mysoginistic, but as it's changed, the Muslim world hasn't changed with it. Tehnology and Social Media has meant that the ideals that underpin Islam are too easily challenged and Muslims can't handle it.

From ch4 - black men are 10 times more likely to suffer from a psychotic disorder.
But guess who is at fault

I just think back 35 years when my boss, who was rather strict and straight - good at cricket and a laugh when relaxing from his normal 'boss' deameanor.

He gets right to the heart of the issue. That its then - arrest the drug gangs and spend more money, got it in one - brilliant. No thought of personal responsibility. It is a wonder there isn't a lot more violence as people are so disaffected.
Quote from the guardian
After the death of Tanesha Melbourne-Blake put London on track for its highest homicide rate since 2005, the Labour MP David Lammy said the situation was “worse than I’ve ever seen it”. He blamed the rapid growth of the illicit drug economy and cuts to public services for the rising violence.

As usual a lot of nonsense on here from people who don't live in London and in many cases don't even visit. I'm in the West End almost every week and have not once felt unsafe. I've never seen gangs of youths hanging around there as suggested earlier in the thread. Of course there are some areas in London you tend to avoid but that's the same in any City. Serious gang crime is clearly on the rise and that needs to be tackled but it doesn't have much bearing on the safety of the general public.

Yes, all these stabbings and murders... all the fault of the Mayor of London - so long as it's the Mayor we want to have a pop at, at every opportunity.
Now, I'm no fan of Khan, but he isn't so all-powerful that these crimes can be attributed to him. I don't remember any threads blaming Johnson for all the bad stuff which happened when he was mayor of London.
This sort of sums up much of the crap on here:
Dr Crippen • April 3, 2018 3:25 PM BST
Until we get a government that isn't afraid of being tagged as racist nothing will be done. Labour aren't afraid of being called racist, but unfortunately they're on the wrong side,

I think the police let them get on with it. Not enough political strength to do what needs to be done. Only reacting when it leads to a killing. They have had one hand tied behind their backs so to speak. How can they patrol the streets if the mayor allocates 900 coppers to looking for 'hate crimes' - definitely not khan's fault ha ha

I was a bookie manager as a young man in London in the late 80s early 90s. One armed robbery and twice mugged in the space of 2/3 years. I blocked out the shotgun, but I still remember the six inch knife and the arm around my neck on the final mugging.

I'm inured to hearing about the shootings/knifings in London especially when it mostly appears to be black on black gang crime. There is only one way of sorting it out... round up every hooligan in the area and anyone with a gun or knife consigned to a newly created British Guantanamo Bay. A remote Scottish island would suit and also provide work opportunities for the locals. Lammy/Abbott both nausiate me with their hand wringing , blaming everyone else for the behaviour of these animals.

There is definitely a media black out < little acknowledgement of the fact this is a predominately black on black crime. Mainstream media too tepid and scared to address the issue, it was the same with the London Riots in 2011, every still image, every video footage and every looter was of dark skinned appearance or near enough, Eddie Nestor of BBC London Radio used to cut off callers when they piped up on the matter and said what was obvious unless you are were born blind. He is black.
The ever useless David Lammy refuses to address the root of the problem and instead chooses to pander to the local community that elects him into his position in the first place, by diverting attention to 'authorities that have not invested enough resources into the area' and 'agencies that don't understand how to tackle the problem, to 'white Eastern Europeans fuelling drug wars' lol, throw everything into the mixer to muddy the waters and cause confusion.
This is clearly a cultural problem, the same way that it's a cultural problem for large numbers of the male Pakistani community to be involved in in grooming gangs. Large number of young black males mostly with West Indian Roots, grow up in single parent families without a father figure, Rap videos and lyrics promoting violence / glorifying gangster lifestyles, very deprived areas of London and a lot of angry young men leads to a dangerous cocktail of gangs, guns, knives and murder. The only solution long term is too slow down immigration from commonwealth countries or make an example of those convicted with heavy punishments, but that it wont happen.
If you live in places like Richmond, Hampstead, Kensington you will feel safe, venture into certain parts ofLambeth, Southwark, Tower Hamlets, Newham, Harrigey and it's a different city altogether.
As for West End, there is a higher crime rate than people think according to statistics.
Westminster Quintessentially London, Westminster is home to most of the West End, St James’s Palace, Buckingham Palace, Oxford Street and Regent Street. That said, given that the Houses of Parliament are located there, its status as the most crime-ridden London borough may make some sense. However, since expense scandals and cash for access aren’t listed in the Met’s figures, something else must be going on. Westminster has for a long time been the borough with the highest number of violent crimes per person, and has one of the highest crime rates in the UK. With a massive 51,103 crimes committed last year – including 11,685 incidents of violence against the person, 28,250 thefts, 3,134 burglaries and 928 sexual offences – the 8.29 square miles which make up Westminster are particularly dangerous.
Kind Regards

There was an ex copper on C4 news the other night. A black man who'd done 30 years service.
He said the police need to be more representative of the community. i.e more black coppers. After 30 years that is the ignorance he was spouting.
I should think Jamican Plod are nearly 100% black and yet look at the death toll!!
' Police statistics show that for the first six days of the year, there were 38 murders, 16 shootings and 17 robberies.
This is compared with 23 murders, 18 shootings and 16 robberies over the similar period last year.
Jamaica closed 2017 with 1,616 murders, one of the highest homicide figures on record.

Moisok, you really are a bizarre character. Making incorrect assertions about where i live, whilst completely failing to address the point i was making about the West End being much safer than individuals earlier in the thread were suggesting.

I felt safe and I was mugged twice and I felt safe afterwards tbh. You are 100 times more likely to die from cancer or heart problems. I'm sure like most blokes, I'm much more worried when I go to the doctors.
As for the West End. I think I'd echo mesmerised's quote. I reckon it's the most likely area of London to be a victim of a crime. Too many easy targets (thinking they and their possessions are safe)

That said, what winds me up most about all these stabbings and murders is the smoke and mirror diversionary blaming game from the likes of Lammy and Abbott. Neither are bright enough to be politicians which winds me up even more.

It's a cultural issue and if you want to do anything about it you have to see it as it is. Accept it's a cultural issue and don't blame external factors. Like being an alcoholic. First you have to accept you are an alcoholic and want to stop.

northanlite 03 Apr 18 15:32 You want to put a simple race spin on it but murder rates are even higher in Glasgow & that isn't the issue there. It is a socio-economic problem with many factors involved and the problems faced in both cities will be similar even if the skin tone is different
Correct. And maybe cutting uk police force by 20,000 has some impact ??!!

No it's not correct. London has a higher murder rate, nearly double on latest figures. Glasgow is the worst area in Scotland though. And it almost suffers from greater poverty than London.

Another way of tackling the problem would be to prevent the troublemakers from breeding and thus passing on their criminal genes. I'm sure Lammy and his like would be up in arms and go on about 'human rights' however my stance is that by arming themselves and joining gangs they've forfeited the right to be considered human.
What is needed is a proper crackdown to get every one of the scum off the streets for good thus allowing law abiding people to reclaim their streets and go about their business day or night without the risk of being caught up in the cross fire.
I'd like to make it clear to anyone thinking this is a racist solution that i'm not just picking on those of West Indian origin....anyone white,brown ,black would be treated the same

Landan can be very very nice - lots of nice areas to go to - especially on days like today. I have been let out today - very pleasant. But hurried home before it got too close to sunset.

Murder rates gone down in Glasgow despite reduced police presence. Targeted stop and search is the most obvious thing the police could do to prevent it, but that's going to upset peoples sensibilities.

Thanks to the misguided fixation that our political and media establishment have with multiculturalism, we are living in a new dark age, which will get progressively worse and leave this country unrecognisable. These politicaly correct progressives do not care about the consequences of their mass migration policies and the misery that their policies will bring on a majority of the population.

"Some in government are quick to blame others. But this is a shameless and knee-jerk response, that not only displays ignorance of the complexity of the problem but also hand wringing by those truly to blame.
Rising crime is a symptom of much deeper failings in our criminal justice system and also demonstrates how the Tories have totally forgotten the importance of rooting out the causes of crime. Let’s look at this in more detail"
Whoever wrote really is a hypocrite of the highest order
Blaming the Tory government for the black knife and gun culture in London. We really are dealing with some sick imbeciles
