      But you have to respect “their culture”. Anyway, didn’t you know, it’s all a response to Western imperialism?http://bit.ly/2tUlN0A

      Thread: 15 new cases of female genital mutilation (FGM) were recorded in my neighbourhood over the last year. http://www.bedfordshire-news.co.uk/new-cases-of-female-genital-mutilation-recorded-in-luton/story-30422731-detail/story.html#6D1h5Bpeeiphru9x.99 …

      In whole of UK, there is now roughly one new case of FGM every single hour. http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/female-genital-mutilation-fgm-case-per-hour-uk-nhs-circumcision-a7564571.html …

      I asked police why those guilty of FGM aren't jailed. They said it's just too common. There are ~140,000 UK cases. https://www.city.ac.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0004/282388/FGM-statistics-final-report-21-07-15-released-text.pdf …

      Jailing 140,000 for FGM wouldn't be "in the public interest" as it would put excess strain on already overburdened prisons.

      Also, jailed parents would mean social services would have to play role of parents to younger victims. Again, too much strain on departments

      Therefore, approach of local police regarding FGM is to educate Luton's Muslim community to prevent future cases. https://www.luton.gov.uk/Community_and_living/crime-and-community-safety/Domestic_violence/Information%20for%20practitioners/Pages/Female-Genital-Mutilation-information-for-practitioners.aspx …

      My understanding is that most Muslims in Luton are from Kashmir, I am not aware that community does FGM?

      I don't know the demographic breakdown of local FGM cases, but I will try to find out.

      Only recently has the NHS been collecting data, reported cases almost entirely from Africa origins https://digital.nhs.uk/media/31436/FGM-Annual-Report-2016-17/default/fgm-apr-2016-mar-2017-exp-rep …

      Yes, I've heard most cases of FGM occur during summer breaks in African countries. Don't know how much of that is just rumour though.

          And of course FGM practice spans across religions, including Christians and Muslims. (I am not implying either promotes/condones FGM)
