possibly due to better reporting practices by the police as well as an increasing willingness of victims to come forward, including historic victims of sexual violence.

Yes, possibly. Possibly is the key word here. And also possibly because many millions of people from asia and africa have moved to england in the last 10 years. How do we tell?

Nevertheless, the very uncertainty around these numbers will always provide a certain amount of ammunition for determined racists resorting to the time-honoured trope of saving the virtue of white womanhood from the depredations of sexually-predatory non-white men.

Great, so in that case diogenes statistics can also be ruled out on the same basis.

I have always acknowledged that we can not be certain about any statistics, but diogenes seems to think he has settled the question for once and for all. Its certainly not settled. You can find statistics that point both ways.


Now, how do we find out what the actual numbers are?
