Whyever would we compare it to other countries? We compare it to the past. The statistics were compiled from 2015 and in just the few years since then solved crimes have halved: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-49029545. If you and I were to travel back in time to the high trust society before mass surveilance & enquired our police wouldn't deny they held the the monopoly on violence. My friends in the forces of today tell me they feel under siege most days. Apologies, "London is the knife crime capital of the world." is part of the venacular here akin to "The man who broke the Bank of England". |
