    Crime down in London

    From the Ministry of Truth

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6571189.stm
    Crime in London has dropped to its lowest level for eight years, according to Metropolitan Police figures.
    It said crime in the capital fell by 6.3% in the 12 months to the end of March, to 921,779 offences.

    Murder figures fell by 3.6% with gun/knife crimes (-11.3%), sex attacks (-9.6%), and burglary (-6.6%) down.

    Robbery against the person is unchanged but drug offences are up 26.4% and robbery overall rose 1%, with robberies against businesses up 17%.

    Racist, homophobic and domestic crimes are down as are motor vehicle offences.
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        They weren't pigs flying. That was a whole farm yard on a mission into deep space.

          Nope - St Tony said tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime.... and so it has come to pass

          Rejoice!

            In the opposite direction on the tail of a litter dropper.

            Tough on the causes of crime? They've really got those poppy fields in Afghanistan under control haven't they, bumper yields since the troops went in.
