All I'm saying is it's easy to sit back from either side and lay all the blame at the door of the opposition. Yes, greed is a driver of crime. So is lack of opportunity and poverty. Education and opportunity are key. Far too often, in fact invariably, the British public choose tax cuts in preference to spending on what's important and then justifying it by trotting out the old party/ideological prejudices.
The easiest way to cut hate/race crime would be to deport everyone except British born white atheists that way there is no one to hate or be racist towards. It would free up loads of jobs,particularly in the NHS ( and cut waiting times), provide loads of newly empty properties thus solving the housing crisis. It would provide many business opportunities as multitudes of fast food outlets and shops would become available for budding entrepreneurs. There would be plenty of food on the shelves in shops {particularly fresh stuff) so we would be able to feed ourselves and not rely on imports hence one less set of trade deals we have to worry about thus speeding up Brexit. We would need thousands less police so saving a fortune....could even abolish them which would mean prisons would slowly empty and nobody would worry about crime as none has been reported to worry about. Surprised nobody's thought of it before ! The above post may not be entirely serious and was typed with ones tongue in ones cheek
The issue with hate crime is that some see immigration as a brake on opportunity and affluence. Whilst ever we’ve an unending supply of cheap eastern european labour available firms can continue to pay the bare minimum thus keeping people on the breadline. This doesn't necessarily lead to crime but does lead to tensions. Grossly underestimated by the happy clappers in all sides of the house who believe we can all live in perfect harmoneee. Its a myth.
But that would mean that the most popular boys name of 2019 would no longer be Mohammed. Surely you can’t be serious !
You missed out one sentence “There’d be no body to blame” wonder what our resident right wingers would do then!
Due to the make up of the remaining population there would be nothing happening for anyone to get the blame for !
Even if the extra 8 million were indigenous you'd still see an increase in crime . That's a population increase greater than Scotlands , all in the space of less than 20 years . But here in lies the problem ,we need the extra people desperately but no one wants to pay the extra taxes to create the infrastructure to accommodate them . The war generation managed it but it seems subsequent generations have lost that ability thus putting pressure on other sections of society . https://time.com/5291439/west-population-problem-white-nationalists-policies/ An interesting article that's worth a read which addresses this rather prickly issue .
We would have to go back to good old exclusively British and non religious names like David, Andrew, George (I like that one).Christopher, Joseph, Mary etc
