Farage demands government release full migrant crime stats, blames Tories for importing “mass criminality”

Brexit leader Nigel Farage has called on the government to release full statistics on migrant crime as is done in countries like Denmark

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.”
