I'm always suspicious of low crime rates - often it means people don't bother reporting crimes as they know nothing will happen.
IE, if I get robbed in the City of London is it even worth calling the police?
- mytailorisrich 2y agoWhy would there be a difference in reporting in the City vs the rest of London?
- andylynch 2y agoThe City Police have a very, small patch and little violent crime, but are geared up to deal with IRA/ISIS-type threats. Part of this means they have surveillance coverage of virtually the entire areas. It also mean that they can get anywhere very, very quickly.
- cannonpr 2y agoYes it is, a friend had their laptop stolen, the police tracked down the offenders within 2 hours and returned the items. What they also don’t tell you is that it’s a dystopian panopticon and runs on a slightly different legal system than the rest of the U.K.
- LAC-Tech 2y agoImpressive! TBH I'd rather that dystopia than the one where people are constantly having their things stolen with zero recourse.
