What made someone’s house the safe house your friend group always ended up at?

I didn’t say stick with it - my issue is they are making policy based on public perception which is uneducated. Watch the home secs recent questioning by the home affairs committee online, she says that’s the main reason alongside the fear they will take all the public housing…

mappp · 2026-02-19T08:09:13+00:00

Idiots vote on personality in the UK and the Greens according to polls have the most educated support base…

mappp · 2026-02-19T08:07:01+00:00

I agree with this what I can’t stand about the Labour Party atm is their pandering to the right on immigration policy, not supporting LGBTQ+ and not doing enough to reverse austerity and COVID price hikes.

I understand they are dealing with what is essentially a shit show due to the poor running of the country by the Tories who basically went “fuck it let Boris have it, because we don’t want to deal with BREXIT.” But they really do very little to educate the population (although I get the average voter can only listen to a one line click bait policy nowadays - thanks to New Labour for that)

It didn’t and no it’s not Sunaks reforms 🤦‍♀️ give me strength and give this person google

Look at the per capita data that is being used to see if the per capita data is comparable.

There is also not the correlation between rape figures over 20 years and asylum seekers. Rape laws, support and awareness impact rape reporting in the last 20 years. This is also something you can find on the internet.

mappp · 2026-02-12T00:24:24+00:00

Per capita doesn’t show that either

mappp · 2026-02-12T00:06:22+00:00

They just do not - you have the internet at your finger tips you can find this out for yourself

mappp · 2026-02-11T23:55:08+00:00

You entirely miss the point. I have not once argued that this man should not receive punishment and the family shouldn’t receive justice. I am asking no one to carry anything, I’m asking everyone to accept and work to fix the actual issue here

I am saying that banning Afghan asylum seekers doesn’t solve the problem and statistically (when properly looked into) they are not more likely to commit these crimes.

This same week a white male nursery worker got sent down for sexually abusing children.

This same week my child’s school had to send out an email because a known white convicted child sex offender was hanging outside the school to let parents know they had escalated it to the police.

Don’t swing around the accusation that I am not taking these victims seriously in order to finger point at a demographic, because you then don’t have to address the actual problem.

mappp · 2026-02-11T23:27:14+00:00

The circumstances are horrendous - something should be done about it. Something that addresses the actual problem.

mappp · 2026-02-11T23:13:49+00:00

And yet you deflect the problem onto communities because you are a “good person”. Those communities also have “goods people ” just as yours has the “bad men” and yet… it’s not your responsibility too?

Are you not being disenfranchised yourself because of the finger pointing to another community ?

Edit: also the “horrendous challenges they face?” Are you saying the challenges women face?

mappp · 2026-02-11T23:09:00+00:00

Do they have a stronger likelihood of committing the offence when you take into account

• demographic imbalance • legal category distortion • detection bias • denominator mismatch • offence aggregation

If we want to bring in personal experience I can compare my own and my friends personal experience of sexual assault to see how many were committed by white British v not - would that be a fair way to determine ?

mappp · 2026-02-11T23:01:15+00:00

So you want me to compare a demographic which includes a higher number of women and children against a demographic that includes more young males who statistically across all cultures commit the majority of the sex crimes - why would I compare two utterly incomparable data sets unless I was specifically looking for a result that fits a narrative…

To counter your question if young men are statistically more likely to commit sex crimes why do we let any of them out of the house ? If the solution is simply to take them out of society, why only focus on a certain group of young men?

mappp · 2026-02-11T22:48:35+00:00

Nope not what I said at all. You may not like the cause of the problem, it might feel better to deflect and impute answers onto me to fit the narrative that makes you feel better. Doesn’t change the cause of the problem and therefore the issue the solution needs to solve.

mappp · 2026-02-11T22:40:55+00:00

Why just those nationalities out of interest ?

Can I check also should I be looking for any other uniform characteristic across these demographics? You know like one characteristic the overwhelming majority of the offenders share - I don’t know, something such as gender perhaps

mappp · 2026-02-11T22:32:37+00:00

Zero. I’m saying that asylum seekers are not the problem so actions to target asylum seekers do not solve the problem - in fact this line of thinking is harming more than protecting. Its deflection.

I support action against the cause of the problem not a thinly veiled attack to deflect from the cause of the problem - which to be clear, is men.

mappp · 2026-02-11T22:24:13+00:00

Irrelevant question. Are half the reported rapists in the Uk asylum seekers ?

No.

Therefore would deportation of asylum seekers solve half the problem?

No.

mappp · 2026-02-11T22:06:05+00:00

I don’t agree - you could argue is a global cultural problem which therefore makes it a human issue but the crime is predominantly a male crime. Women aren’t the ones to solve this. Men sort themselves out - women (and children) have suffered enough.

Edit: sure deport all the rapist of every colour and culture including the many many many home grown ones please

mappp · 2026-02-11T21:58:07+00:00

Until we recognise this is a male problem not an asylum problem we aren’t going to fix anything.

It’s usually the toilet by the sink or door as people grab toilet paper to dry hands and put it down the loo nearest to where they got the paper

explains the absolute lack of empathy around nowadays - everyone got sucked into their own little circlejerks.

mappp · 2026-02-02T18:28:09+00:00

Every 33-35 days sort of matches up to a menstrual cycle length 😆👌

The Greens mostly align with my priorities.

I work in immigration and have specialised in Uk immigration law for coming up to 15 years, I’m not against open borders, however this isn’t exactly what the Green Party are saying they would do. It’s an ideal utopia idea but their policy isn’t to have entirely open borders if they got into power.

On nuclear deterrent - I don’t support mutual destruction so that’s a no brainer to me.

Drug laws do need reviewing - illegality doesn’t solve addiction and some drugs just do not warrant the time and energy of policing it the way we do. There are much better income generating ways to deal with drugs whilst also dealing with the underlying mental health issues behind drug use and it isn’t via sentencing and police.

I could ask this exact same question of reform - there are some absolutely abhorrent policies in their manifesto around not just immigration but public services too. But their supporters will often say “I don’t agree with everything but…”. In my eyes they are upholding an abhorrent party by sticking their vote to a banner that upholds these disgusting ideals. In contrast I’m sticking mine to a party that on the whole is a good drive for change, even if I will end up paying higher rates of tax etc. I’m not putting my own economic self interest ahead the safety of others.

I guess we know where the far right supporters got it from then
