Thamesmead is the estate from where the white guys who stabbed stephen lawrence to death were from
It's got appalling levels of knife crime and the area is predominantly white
As is wales , which is predominantly white and where knife crime has gone up by 23 percent in 2 years
South bermondsey , welling , millwall territory , knife crime

Why is looking at stop and search figures without looking at crime statistics pointless ?

Here is an operation which I am sure you and me both support which south wales police has brought in to tackle knife crime
Do you think that south wales police arrests for knife crime are dominated in the statistics by black people ?
Considering we only have a sizeable black community in cardiff who do you think is responsible for knife crime in the rest of the south wales police area ?
I would suggest its white people
Therefore why is it a black person is 7 times more likely to be stopped in south wales by the police than a white person ?
Are the police a bunch of nazis ? Clearly not , but there is obviously something that needs to be addressed, would you agree ?
It's pointless and tells you nothing. If you look at it in isolation you'd think it's racial, then when you look at knife crime then you understand why it's done. Glasgow did the exact same thing, looked at the areas of where the stabbings were taking place and tried to tackle the issue that way. The perpetrators were poor white people so I doubt you think racial profiling was happening there.
I do support the idea of that operation, if SW police focus on the community and issues that lead to knife crime then brilliant, it'll do more than any stop and search will (as Glasgow eventually found out) bit I am not going to guess which ethnicity is committing more knife crime without statistics, it's utterly pointless (as proven by you jumping to a conclusion about white people with zero reasoning)
Something needs to be done yes, it's no surprise that since fewer police are out and about the crime rates have gone up as well as cuts to other public services.

That mother you mean ?
That is utterly disgraceful (from, her not you) !!!
Those brave boys & girls, put their lives on the line, to have an accusation like that aimed at them, with no means of defence, is the lowest of the low.
I don’t normally get involved in threads like this, as most posters are just “point scoring” !!!! But her comments made my blood boil and doesn’t do anything to help, anyone’s fight against racism.
And she is a baroness.
Are the statistics showing knife crime to be a predominantly black person issue skewed due to the racial profiling and far higher chance of being searched and caught with a knife or its it the other way round?
