From the Sun, published 3 days ago DANGER ZONES Map shows the top 10 UK crime hotspots – do YOU live in the most dangerous area? Newcastle has the lowest crime rate of the UK Top Ten at 116 per 1 000 people: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/36904645/map-top-10-uk-crime-hotspots/

Westminster in central London had the highest current annual crime rate at 423.2 incidents reported per 1,000 people.

I feel sure if you asked folk in these two places how they think Glasgow would compared, they’d be deeply surprised to hear it’s only 82.9 per 1 000: https://www.gov.scot/publications/recorded-crime-scotland-2024-25/pages/total-recorded-crime/

Critics will tell you that the SNP can have nothing to do with this but you only have to retort – ‘Imagine if it was the other way round, who’d be to blame?’
