London is more dangerous by the day.

/// So far this year in London alone there have been more than 20 youth murders, while knife crime against young victims across England and Wales has surged by 69 per cent in the last four years. ///

On a radio phone-in last night, an Asian gentleman said that it is getting so dangerous for his wife and children that he is returning to India, since England is not the same country that he chose to settle in years ago, he also said that his children have to be indoors by 7pm.

We should stop pumping millions into other countries in foreign aid and put more police on the streets. Simples.

How to start derailing a thread, because you don't care to address the real issue.

[Mamyalynne]

Very frightening, hope the lady will be alright.

Nice sentiment Mam, but there have been 100 so far this year who won't, they are dead.

[Mamyalynne]

I apologise if my answer was insufficient.

They will never stop it, it's the culture and it's here to stay. Even if more and more police are available there's no respect for them from young people today...seems nothing scares them now.

This country has grown into a lawless society and it would take a massive change to shift things back to basics and even then I doubt it could happen. We are all fighting for our lives with no prospect of being able to live in a safe environment for all manner of reasons...(not enough mental health workers or places to house or imprison those who need to be kept away from society etc)

Looks like this is it folks, make the best of what we are having to put up with....I for one cannot see a light at the end of a very dark and scary tunnel.

[SparklyKid]

Well said dunnitall. Although certain abers will say we have nothing to fear, lol.

[gingejbee]

More good news for AOG....the thread didn't "derail" because of my comment...

[maggiebee]

It was still an idiotic comment IMO gingejbee

[gingejbee]

^^^in your opinion....in my opinion, it was justified. But I'm sure AOG will value your support.

I know what London's are, I am not interested what New York's are, neither am I interested in Kingston's, San Salvador's or Cape Town's.

[THECORBYLOON]

ANOTHEOLDGIT, you were interested in the New York figures in April.

https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/News/Question1600265.html

During the six months ending June this year, there were 80 homicides in London and 141 in New York.

New York's homicide rate was 76% higher than London in that six-month period.

America is one of the world's largest multiracial, multicultural countries, doesn't that say something?

[Zacs-Master]

It says something about you, yes.
