From Elsewhere: There are lies, damned lies and Home Office statistics.

 

I’ve just watched a stunning, informative and very concerning video that has been put out by The Lotus Eaters organisation. The video is based on an examination by grooming gang survivor and victims advocate Dr Ella Hill, of official Home Office ‘hate crime’ figures.

I will not rehash Dr Hill’s impressive statistical sleuthing on the excellent Lotus Eaters video as it is better to watch the video yourself and hopefully like me become extremely concerned at what looks like the Home Office engaging in statistical slight of hand possibly for ideological reasons. To give you a flavour of what Dr Hill uncovered it appears that for the Home Office’s Hate Crime Unit, hate crime victims are a bit like Orwell’s animals on Animal Farm, more equal than others. The gist of what Dr Hill found out and what the Lotus Eaters has presented is that the Home Office appear to massaging hate crime figures to make it look as if some groups, such as White Britons and Jews to name but two, are less afflicted by hate or identity based crime than others.

If you watch one political video today then watch this one.

  1. I can’t pretend to be “stunned” or even shocked by this.
    Anecdotally I’ve known for years that any “insult” to a BAME person (and especially a Muslim) will get you listed as a “non-crime hate incident”, but racial abuse of white people (esp. female) is NEVER (well seldom) considered to be racially or religiously aggravated.
    Given that the murder of Lee Rigby was not considered as a religiously motivated hate crime when the spoken words and the letter by Michael Adebolajo aka “Mujahid Abu Hamza” (translated “Allah’s soldier [and] father of Hamza”) clearly demonstrate that it was, I realised then and there that blatant double standards were being used to exonerate Islam from Islamic terror.

    There was new information in the video for me: I hadn’t realised (but again was not shocked to learn) that the statistics omit sexual crime against under 16s, often the favourite prey of the Muslim child-rape gangs, thus minimising the impact of the rape-gangs.

    So I can’t pretend that the bias, skewing and hiding of the data was a shock, but I will admit to being slightly surprised by the overt level of blatancy.

      I agree that this isn’t as shocking as it should be. This sort of statistical obfuscation is what the Wokeists do and what we’ve seen from various Islamic groups in order to persuade,with dishonesty of both omission and commission, to convince people that things are worse for ethnic minority Britons than they really are, after all it is claimed victimhood where the money is. I wonder how much taxpayers money has been dished out to identity politics groups on the back of claims justified by these bent Home Office figures?

      The discounting of the victims of Islamic terror atrocities in hate crime figures is to me absolutely appalling. These crimes are motivated by hatred of non believers in Islam and therefore should count. I suspect that there are those in the Home Office who wish to make Islam appear more victimsed than it really is by discounting the victims of Islam inspired crime. I completely agree that discounting sexual assault victims under the age of sixteen helps to hide the extent of identity based violence committed by the Islamic Grooming Gangs from the general public.

  2. I’ve also often thought that it’s likely that no non-Muslim politician or civil servant (or at least very, very few) have ever actually bothered to read the Koran and it’s even less likely that they have done so with due regard to chronology (we naturally assume that a book’s time-line begins at the front and ends at the back but nothing could be further from the truth for the Koran).
    As a result what they (think they) know about Islam is what they have been taught by a trainer (that Islam is all about peace), who in turn has never read the Koran and only knows what a trainer has told them and so on, almost ad infinitum.
    Thus they have a totally false picture of what Islam actually says.
    Add to the that the widely held atheistic view that religion is bunk and so cannot be the “real” cause of anything and I think it is often literally beyond the comprehension of our Pollies etc. that Islam is the root cause of Islamic terror (hence the “poverty”, “poor education” & “bad housing” excuses bandied about in earlier years before they were so thoroughly refuted and “mentally ill” became popular).
    Islamic terrorism sets up cognitive dissonance within them, hence the denial and the frantic search for any other reason which allows them to maintain their beliefs.
    It is ironic, of course, that such people who would doubtless call themselves “rationalists” from their rejection of the “superstition” of religion (mostly Christian in the West that is) hold quite irrational beliefs about Islam, beliefs that any student of Islam knows and can prove are false.

    I’ve read the Bible from cover to cover but couldn’t make it through the Koran. Tedious and repetitive, it reads as though Big Al just likes hearing the sound of his own voice.

      I’ve read enough of the Koran and the Hadith to be able to see that Islam is not a ‘religion of peace’. It is indeed tedious and repetitive and seems, unlike the Bible, designed to confuse rather than enlighten.
