Sorry but is there any evidence that non-White/Muslim people are not the victims of crime in Tower Hamlets? :rem: This seems like a rather extreme assertion.

Yet most people think it hasn't gone down like the often massaged stats say, based on what they see with their own eyes. Like myself, many think that most don't bother to report crime as they police are next to useless most times. Some crime has gone up too, so saying crime in london has gone down is a bit vague really.

But it's less vague than claiming crime is increasing because of people's perceptions of crime. That's an awful way to measure it. The statistics mirror the average downward trend in crime that has been occurring in the Western world as a whole. Crime in London has been falling and has been doing so despite this increase in immigration.

If it didn't we would be 'overrun' by Irish, people form India and so on. Every immigrant group tends to find they adapt as the generations go on. Economics tend to win out and subsequent generations of immigrants (i.e children of immigrants) tend to integrate better than their parents did. They want jobs, they want a comfortable lifestyle and so on.
