Not a promising start for a "fact check": "Crime in London has become a source of some fascination for many right-wing and Islamophobic observers..." It's amazing how hard it is to get a clean, unbiased, professional fact check from today's fact-checkers.https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/london-knife-crime-muslims/ …
Officials either don't collect or don't publish the needed numbers. Naturally, this leads to suspicious about what such numbers might reveal of uncomfortable facts.

Luckily there is otherwise generated data, https://pjjonasson.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/sexualbrottslighet_bland_man_fodda_i_sverige_och_i_utlandet.pdf …, and the crime rates over time paint a very clear picture anywaypic.twitter.com/7f1gcox2Kt

The link doesn't work for me. What is this graph about?
-
Swedish officials refuse to publish crime rates by origin/ethnicity. However, there are numbers of crimes reported to the police. There are also some surveys of people reporting trygghet (feeling of safety) by where people live, so we know where the problems are from.

The link is to an independent Swedish report titled "Sexual crime among men born in Sweden and abroad". Kaiser, can you get ahold of an English translation of this analysis?

Okay. the link works now. It didn't work for me on mobile. But the document is in a bizarre North Germanic language, presumably Swedish. It reminds me of "Män som hatar kvinnor".
