Default British Govt & Police - "Refugees Bring Crime"

http://www.dailytelegraph.co.uk/news...ixnewstop.html

Immigrants bring increased crime, says police chief
By John Steele, Crime Correspondent
(Filed: 19/05/2003)

An influx of refugees has generated significant increases in crime and
the potential for unrest on the streets, the leader of police chiefs
said yesterday.
The warning came days before the Prime Minister is due to claim that
monthly arrivals of asylum seekers have fallen from about 9,000 last
October to an average of 5,000 a month in the first quarter of this
year.

However, Chris Fox, the president of the Association of Chief Police
Officers (ACPO), warned that many criminals were slipping untracked
into Britain amid genuine refugees in the largest flows of immigration
for 40 years.

Gangsters from the Balkans, eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa
have, according to Mr Fox, generated increased levels of drug dealing,
prostitution, kidnapping, extortion and fraud.

Some crimes, such as kidnapping, are regarded as "new", not having
been favoured by established British crime groups.

And with criminal activity like gun fights and gang rapes, it's pretty
much a given that the offenders will be of immigrant origin.

Gun crime 'threat' to UK minorities

Sadly, with the lack of effective immigration control, the situation
is hardly likely to improve.
