National strategy beyond policing and criminal justice system needed to tackle problem, Sir Mark Rowley says
Millions of men in England and Wales pose a danger to women and children, the commissioner of the Metropolitan police has said.
Sir Mark Rowley said the figures were “eye-watering” and an “inconvenient truth” as he called for a much bigger effort, a national strategy and more money to tackle the problem.
He relied on an upcoming study produced for police chiefs nationally that says there are up to 4 million perpetrators of violence against women and children, who are mainly men, with one in 10 people being victims, who are mainly women or children.
Rowley, who is Britain’s most senior police officer, said the scale of offending by men against women and children was beyond the criminal justice system to tackle.
He told the London policing board: “When you look across violence against women and children, there are millions of offenders in the UK. Some of the numbers are eye-watering.
Non-whites are actually overrepresented in sexual crimes and crimes in general. Rape and pedophilia are also normalized in many non-white cultures, which is why they have higher rates of teen pregnancies and child abuse, why muslims will defend Muhammad having married a child, and why we've seen an increase in the number of assault cases as more muslims have immigrated to Europe.
