'Alarming' rise in race crime in East Lancashire

THE number of reported crimes in Lancashire has fallen – but figures show an ‘alarming’ rise in racially-aggravated crime in East Lancs.

Overall, crime has reduced by 3.1 per cent in the county, which equates to 3,160 fewer victims of crime last year.

But figures show racially-aggravated crime in Eastern division, which covers Blackburn with Darwen, Hyndburn, and Ribble Valley, went up by 21.9 per cent.

There were 157 incidents reported last year, compared to 120 in 2010-11.

Salim Mulla, chairman of Lancashire Council of Mosques, said: “It is alarming to hear a rise of that magnitude. I don’t know what the root cause is, but the community is working hard in terms of integrating and having seminars, interfaith work and functions.

“All we can do is keep working hard to get the key message out through our mosques and keep praying. As long as we keep working with police, local councils, voluntary, and statutory bodies, I’m sure these statistics will improve.”

There was a 20.9 per cent rise in the number of robberies in Eastern division, with 139 incidents compared to 115.

In Pennine division, vehicle crime was slashed by 9.6per cent, from 1,777 to 1,607 reports.

Vehicle crime in Eastern was down 7.5 per cent from 1,838 to 1,700 reports. Sex offences rose from 277 to 291 incidents in Eastern, and fell from 271 to 258 in Pennine.

Crime detection rates in Eastern dropped from 36.5 per cent in 2010-11 to 34.7 per cent in 2011-12.

In Pennine, 38.2 per cent of crimes were detected last year, compared to 37.2 the previous year. The detection rate for Lancashire was 36.7 per cent last year.

Reports of burglary have fallen by 1.1 per cent, violent crime was down 0.3 per cent and criminal damage dropped by 2.6 per cent in Eastern. There was a 4.5 per cent rise in hate crime. All crime dropped by 1.3 per cent in Eastern, from 18,846 incidents to 18,605.

In Pennine, all crime dropped 2.6per cent, from 18,127 to 17,664 reports. Burglaries were down 5.4 per cent, serious acquisitive crime dropped 8.1 per cent, and robberies fell by 10per cent.

However, violent crime increased by 4.7 per cent, racially-aggravated crime by 4 per cent, and hate crime by 3.1 per cent.

Rachel Baines, chairman of the Lancashire Police Federation, said: “Considering the amount of officers and staff we have lost, the figures are very good.”

Chief Constable Steve Finnigan said: “The constabulary has had to make a number of cuts over the past year, and we anticipate more in the future, so we have a challenge ahead of us. Despite this, keeping levels of crime low in Lancashire, and hence keeping people safe from harm, will remain our focus.”

Isn't there a breakdown of these racially-aggravated crimes? I.e. what race against what race?

The problems of racial disharmony have always been present. But people won’t talk about the fundamental problems because they are not allowed to do so because it might be interpreted as being a racist points of view and would end up in serious trouble for doing so.

We have become a nation afraid of voicing an opinion. Especially here in Blackburn and there lies the problem for all to see but the problem is that the majority are afraid to speak about it!

yes, keep getting the message out in the mosques,tell your young men to stop roaming the streets in gangs thinking they own the place -
Race crimes are not just against blacks, more and more are being committed against whites.

The police and law-makers have increased their efforts selectively to highlight what is described as "Racially motivated Crimes". A real load of tripe!!!

I never called myself a "White Englishman" or an "British Anglican". So why do ethnics call themselves "British Muslims" or "Afro-Carribean". This just aggrevates and inflames any form of Racialism. Why do they do it?? Either they are British or they are not.
Racialism is currently a one-way affair. And a word that is used to target anybody who disagrees with a person of non-British descent!

It's time the Giovernment and the Judicial system woke up whilst there is still time
, and corrected the racially slanted approach to almost any daily life.

The reason for a "sharp rise in racially motivated attacks" is that more & more white people have realised, that if you report a crime as 'racially motivated' then it has to be logged as such, by our biased local Police. No sudden increase in these crimes really, just that they have been reported as such. How many of these crimes were committed in the past, but not logged as such by the local lawmen? Sali Mulla seems to be speaking as if these crimes were against Asians. Where is the break-down of these figures? AGAIN, LT, half a report....!!!

No can't believe it !!!! Race Crime in Lancashire !!!! Well them white little racists of the edl !!!!!!

Sorry, but Race Crime is only one way, or so the people in power would let us believe.

In a recent incident, a young man of "Pakistani" Heritage, not "Asian", no doubt born here but will not have any connection with being British, but by the mere colour of his skin can use the Race Card, told my daughter that "he could not be Racist, as Racist's are White, and Racism is White on Pakistani, so he could not be Racist, and can say what he likes about White Barstewards!!!"

And that is it in a nutshell, because this pc-do goody-human rights idiot's have made examples of "White Racist Crimes", the so-called "ethnic majority" bring the Race Card out at the first sign of anything, its like having Diplomatic Immunity, they can't be touched for anything!!!!!

And before Achmed the the "dead te rror ist" replies, "When in Rome" otherwise the door is open, you can leave!! And that applies to the "White" Low Life's in Society, put them on the same boat and sink it !!!

Animal's are culled and I see no reason why human's can't be treated the same way, because the good people of this World, colour,creed, religion, planet, it dosen't matter, pay for everything the scum of this Planet take for granted.

Do the Crime, then do the Time. The Yanks, oops thats me being Racist, I should not have said that !!!! I apologise, The American's have it right, Mr Hook, when he is Deported, will be on his own private cell for life, no parole, no thats what I call Punishment !!! Yet our mamby pamby prats in power will no doubt pander to his appeal and let him go, because "his human rights" have been violated, give me 2 minutes with Hook in a padded cell and he would know what violation meant, and I 'd do with one arm tied behind my back ;-)'

Seems like the "Multicultural" Carpet is getting a bit thread-bare !!! No doubt there will be more money wasted in some jumped up "quango" to sort it all out, that has never seen the light of day, and we will have another Millionaire within our Community !!!

How do Americans have the right approach by having crappy laws like NDAA (indefinite detention of us citizens).

I'm amazed that the Telegraph are accepting our comments as they don't normally when it is anything to do with race 'for legal reasons'. Let's be honest, most of the issues are caused due to people from coloured Muslim Pakistani backgrounds having a very different set of views, cultural beliefs and values to people from a white, Christian background. This causes people from both backgrounds to not get along. Period. The issue that seems to get covered over and over and is forced down our throats by the powers that be is the fact that the people who originate from here are the white people of a generally Christian upbringing and are being told that they are not allowed to say or do anything against the massively increasing population of Pakistani Muslims whom they do not generally (want to) get along with (and vice versa). Many white people feel that they are being forced to change some of their cultural habits and accommodate the increasing Pakistani population and the increasing Pakistani population is driving native white people out of areas that their families have lived in for generations.
This also isn't helped by the fact that there have been an increasing number of grooming incidents where very young white girls are being drugged and gang raped by mainly Pakistani men and it is not helped either by race attacks by white people on Pakistani communities.
These are basic facts and my comments are not meant to be racist, they are just plain and simple facts, yet will probably get deleted by the LT. Perhaps controls should be put in place to help / not allow native white people to be driven out by expanding Pakistani communities. I am from neither cultural group and my comments are purely meant to be taken as from a neutral stand point. This race thing is a massive issue and it will only become worse by the authorities and the press brushing it under the carpet and telling people on both sides to get along and like each other (or else!).

Salim Mulla needs to take a walk through the Mall, this Friday afternoon, to be confronted with hordes of sub-asian males, walking 6-abreast, with not a shopping bag between them and then tell me that what he suggests is being said to youths has any impact whatsoever.

Why doesn't he organise a meeting, where it can be agreed to break up these roaming ne'er-do-wells into smaller groups so as to reduce the intimidation that many people feel?
Oh, but you did do that, a few years ago and it lasted for about a month, didn't it?

There are times when I feel really insulted by the words that Cllr Mulla spouts in the name of community cohesion, his words are more devisive than any actions of others. He panders to his own ilk, with neither a jot nor care about an other listener.

I thought I might be able to add a suitable comment to this article but others have beat me too it. Something like -
Do you mean the racial attacks, often on single males when they are outnumbered by another (cowardly) group of males? I wonder which ethnic group are on the receiving end and which group are on the giving end?

As the demographics of the UK change irrevocably, stand by for the frequency and ferocity of these hate crimes to escalate.

Thanks LibLabCon.

It is the same with the epidemic of racial grooming (pedophilia by any other name) which has been denied by our law keepers for some 8 years and more. Deny it until the figures become too high to ignore.

Stand by for civil war as things are going but we know whose side the authorities will be on - as usual.

COMMON SENSE !!!!!!!

But let me enlighten you, if I abuse your "human rights" and you don't like it and "abuse" me back !!!! Who wins, becasue thats the thing about this Act, only one side wins, and that can't be right !!!

I am White and English, not British, English, and guess what, I have no human rights because, it is not politically correct !!!

Why ???

Because we pander to every foriegn national, who cries "wolf", even the Welsh, Irish and Scottish are taking the "michael" !!!!

Try living in Spain and screaming my human rights are violated !!!!! They talk in the National Language, laugh and leave you on the street, no houses, no benefits etc etc. You work for a living or get out !!!!! Yet our National human rights are thrown aside, because, the French line 'em up in Calais and let 'em run free on any form of Transport they can get on !!!

This is England, a Christian Country, yet it feels like a foreign Country with all these highly coloured mosque's every where you go. Everyone is entitled to pray, but that poor guy who gets his nuts squeezed, when he is calling people (men) to prayer is a bridge too far. And does anyone actually know what he is screeming? Could be anything? Try walking around and listening to what they say in their "natural" language, yet born in Britain, and you might just be surprised, what they do say about "us whites", try speaking say, Spanish and see how they react !!!!

And when you go to Vote at the Local Elections May 3rd, see how many it needs to make one Vote, and I always was under the illusion it was a Private Ballot, oops I forgot, people are allowed to Vote, who cannot Read or Write in English, so how do they know what they are doing?

And if you watch the News, GoodCall, where are the human rights brigade in the likes of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya? These Countries are now worse than they were before the "Arab Spring"? No human rights lawyers would rather have it easy and make a quick and easy buck in the UK, where it seems the Blair's sold our souls to the human rights devil, lock, stock and smokoing barrel !!!!!

And multiculturalism isn't dead, it is alive and well for those who want to live in England, under English Law !!!

No it hasn't. Before the arrival of HMS Windrush in 1948, the ignoring of Enoch Powell's warning speech in 1969 and the failed Labour multicultural experiment since (as agreed now by even Dave Camoron) it hardly raised its ugly head in the UK.

Even the great Cassius Clay (pre-Mulslim name) explained very well why it does not work -

This country will NEVER change now it's too late, If you don't like what you see and can afford it, get out now. Have told my kids the same, get out and start a new life somewhere else.
Brilliant advise for anyone stuck in Britain. But can you go a little further with your wise word's of advise and tell the rest of us where we can start a new life.?? Since the war started on 9/11 there isn't a place on earth that as not been affected by Islamic terroist's threatening the destruction and murdering of all christian's. This war is world wide and i personally would love to learn of a place that is free from Islamic terroist's.?

Dear Mr Mulla. A few seminars and inter faith meetings will not make a difference. The people who attend these are unlikely to be involved in attacks in the first place. Not all of us have faith anyway, so maybe it's time to look beyond religion.

Humans have a clan mentality. Think of mods v rockers, city v united, chavs v Emo, Indian v Pakistani, or everybody v the French. We have two very different cultures in the 10th poorest town in England. One is taught that we are infidel scum, marries relations from back home, and won't integrate; and the other blames the poverty on their immigration here.

I don't think a seminar at Jans conference centre will cut it.

Sorry, but Race Crime is only one way, or so the people in power would let us believe. In a recent incident, a young man of "Pakistani" Heritage, not "Asian", no doubt born here but will not have any connection with being British, but by the mere colour of his skin can use the Race Card, told my daughter that "he could not be Racist, as Racist's are White, and Racism is White on Pakistani, so he could not be Racist, and can say what he likes about White Barstewards!!!" And that is it in a nutshell, because this pc-do goody-human rights idiot's have made examples of "White Racist Crimes", the so-called "ethnic majority" bring the Race Card out at the first sign of anything, its like having Diplomatic Immunity, they can't be touched for anything!!!!! And before Achmed the the "dead te rror ist" replies, "When in Rome" otherwise the door is open, you can leave!! And that applies to the "White" Low Life's in Society, put them on the same boat and sink it !!! Animal's are culled and I see no reason why human's can't be treated the same way, because the good people of this World, colour,creed, religion, planet, it dosen't matter, pay for everything the scum of this Planet take for granted. Do the Crime, then do the Time. The Yanks, oops thats me being Racist, I should not have said that !!!! I apologise, The American's have it right, Mr Hook, when he is Deported, will be on his own private cell for life, no parole, no thats what I call Punishment !!! Yet our mamby pamby prats in power will no doubt pander to his appeal and let him go, because "his human rights" have been violated, give me 2 minutes with Hook in a padded cell and he would know what violation meant, and I 'd do with one arm tied behind my back ;-)' Seems like the "Multicultural" Carpet is getting a bit thread-bare !!! No doubt there will be more money wasted in some jumped up "quango" to sort it all out, that has never seen the light of day, and we will have another Millionaire within our Community !!!
What would you replace the human rights act with.
mmmm Got me there !!! What would I replace the human rigths act with mmmmmmmm!!!!

COMMON SENSE !!!!!!!

But let me enlighten you, if I abuse your "human rights" and you don't like it and "abuse" me back !!!! Who wins, becasue thats the thing about this Act, only one side wins, and that can't be right !!!

I am White and English, not British, English, and guess what, I have no human rights because, it is not politically correct !!!

Why ???

Because we pander to every foriegn national, who cries "wolf", even the Welsh, Irish and Scottish are taking the "michael" !!!!

Try living in Spain and screaming my human rights are violated !!!!! They talk in the National Language, laugh and leave you on the street, no houses, no benefits etc etc. You work for a living or get out !!!!! Yet our National human rights are thrown aside, because, the French line 'em up in Calais and let 'em run free on any form of Transport they can get on !!!

This is England, a Christian Country, yet it feels like a foreign Country with all these highly coloured mosque's every where you go. Everyone is entitled to pray, but that poor guy who gets his nuts squeezed, when he is calling people (men) to prayer is a bridge too far. And does anyone actually know what he is screeming? Could be anything? Try walking around and listening to what they say in their "natural" language, yet born in Britain, and you might just be surprised, what they do say about "us whites", try speaking say, Spanish and see how they react !!!!

And when you go to Vote at the Local Elections May 3rd, see how many it needs to make one Vote, and I always was under the illusion it was a Private Ballot, oops I forgot, people are allowed to Vote, who cannot Read or Write in English, so how do they know what they are doing?

And if you watch the News, GoodCall, where are the human rights brigade in the likes of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya? These Countries are now worse than they were before the "Arab Spring"? No human rights lawyers would rather have it easy and make a quick and easy buck in the UK, where it seems the Blair's sold our souls to the human rights devil, lock, stock and smokoing barrel !!!!!

And multiculturalism isn't dead, it is alive and well for those who want to live in England, under English Law !!!

Rant over !!! lol
Quoted because this is the most truthful post i have ever seen in the LET

I'm amazed that the Telegraph are accepting our comments as they don't normally when it is anything to do with race 'for legal reasons'. Let's be honest, most of the issues are caused due to people from coloured Muslim Pakistani backgrounds having a very different set of views, cultural beliefs and values to people from a white, Christian background. This causes people from both backgrounds to not get along. Period. The issue that seems to get covered over and over and is forced down our throats by the powers that be is the fact that the people who originate from here are the white people of a generally Christian upbringing and are being told that they are not allowed to say or do anything against the massively increasing population of Pakistani Muslims whom they do not generally (want to) get along with (and vice versa). Many white people feel that they are being forced to change some of their cultural habits and accommodate the increasing Pakistani population and the increasing Pakistani population is driving native white people out of areas that their families have lived in for generations.
This also isn't helped by the fact that there have been an increasing number of grooming incidents where very young white girls are being drugged and gang raped by mainly Pakistani men and it is not helped either by race attacks by white people on Pakistani communities.
These are basic facts and my comments are not meant to be racist, they are just plain and simple facts, yet will probably get deleted by the LT. Perhaps controls should be put in place to help / not allow native white people to be driven out by expanding Pakistani communities. I am from neither cultural group and my comments are purely meant to be taken as from a neutral stand point. This race thing is a massive issue and it will only become worse by the authorities and the press brushing it under the carpet and telling people on both sides to get along and like each other (or else!).
The LET are allowing the comments because as per usual they've shown a lack of ability to ensure they include comments from someone within the white community to give the article some balance of opinion.

Salim Mulla is contacted by LET every single time the race word gets mentioned. LET spoke to the chairman of the lancashire police federation & the chief constable of lancashire police officer but still didn't bother to contact a white counsillor or someone from our churches to comment. Basically, they want these comments...in fact they need them because the comments are far more worthy than the article itself.

The world is black and white in your head I take it. Islamic terrorist being bad, while the rest of the world are good.

Ever heard of the United States of America? Israel? The "war" only started on 9/11 because the loon in charge of the US at the time said it did.

What about the continuing, terrible, repression of the Palestinian people by Israel? That seems to by far the biggest problem in this "war". But the world looks on and does nothing about that disgusting terrible injustice because America constantly sucks up to Israel - the country which is the cause of pretty much the entire problems, and for whom UN resolutions against them mean nothing.

Britain meanwhile, once great, acts in the same sorry shameful way as the Americans. Britain used to stand up for the oppressed - it's what made us British, it's what made us Great - it didn't matter how hard or powerful you were, Britain stood up to you for the sake of the little guy.

Now we shamelessly can't even say the right thing, let alone do it. Britain now backs the oppressor not the oppressed. If Churchill had still been around, he'd have declared war on Israel by now.

Open your eyes New World Order - the world isn't black and white like those in charge tell you. They are liars for either their own weak willed deficiencies, or their self served interests.

Don't get me wrong incidentally, multiculturalism hasn't worked. What even is it - everyone just doing their own thing?

The politicians don't want to admit it even to themselves, let alone the public, but anyone who lives in Blackburn or it's like can clearly see that things are very broken.

We need to define what it means to be British. Not exclusion, inclusion, but with a system built on complete fairness, free of religion - set in stone.

We need to act in the same fair way in the world as well - that would go a massive way to making everyone feel included - like they'd want to be included - make everyone proud to be British.

We need to shut up shop as well and take stock, before we lose the kind of Britain our brave soldiers have died for - from all corners of the former empire.

Then we need to face the prejudices head on - from both sides - out in the open. We need to find which are real and can be addressed, and which are just lies and should be outed as laughably wrong.

Constantly sweeping things under the carpet seems to be the worst thing to do, but our leaders seem to be carrying on with that policy regardless. It's a powder keg waiting to go off.

I am white Christian, married to a Muslim, travelled the world, speak three languages and can work and interact with anybody. Race, religion etc. is for is for me secondary; it’s the person who matters.

I don’t live in Blackburn any longer, but when I come back I can see the place is a ticking racial time bomb, and nobody in a position of power seems to care, or are terrified of confronting race issues head on.

The comments here are mostly drivel from low life, however they have to be listened to, and the Telegraph is one of the platforms where these views can be aired. You would be arrested if you repeated some of the comments outside.

The politicians who should take the lead have no backbone and do nothing for us to integrate, us being the Asians and whites of Blackburn. Without leaders, we will have proxy racial fights on comment pages like this and more fights out on the street as the figures show. Shame on all civic leaders they are a just a bunch of cowards. Where are you? Say something about this?
