NATIONAL DISGRACE Four in ten people charged heinous sex attacks in London are foreign
Of the 7,798 offences, 4,631 were from British nationals, 2,809 from non-Brits, and 358 with unknown nationalities Nearly 40% of London Sex Offence Suspects Since 2018 Are Foreign Nationals, Police Data Shows New figures released by the Metropolitan Police reveal that foreign nationals have been charged in nearly four out of ten sexual offence cases in London over the past seven years. According to the data, 2,809 of the 7,798 recorded charges for sexual offences in the capital since 2018 involved non-British individuals, despite foreign nationals accounting for less than a quarter of London’s population. Over that period, the total number of charges for sexual offences has nearly doubled. Romanian nationals accounted for the highest number of sexual offence charges among foreign nationals, with 308 recorded cases. Afghan nationals, with 89 charges, represented the highest rate relative to their estimated population of around 12,000 in London. The statistics were obtained by the Centre for Migration Control, which requested a breakdown of the nationality of individuals charged with sexual offences between 2018 and 2024. The results showed 4,631 charges involved British citizens, 2,809 involved non-British individuals, and 358 were of unknown nationality. Including those with unknown nationality in the foreign national category would mean non-British suspects were responsible for 40.6% of the charges. Excluding them places the figure at 37.8%. Robert Bates, Research Director at the Centre for Migration Control, said: “Our capital city is stuck in the depths of lawless decay. The spike in sexual offences against women and girls is directly attributable to our open borders. “Any foreign national found guilty of these crimes must be deported without question, and those nationalities overrepresented in crime statistics must face visa restrictions. It is time to be unashamedly robust in protecting British decency and making sure our streets are safe.” A spokesperson for the Home Office responded: “Those who commit sex crimes are despicable, causing the most unimaginable harm to victims and survivors. “It is this government’s mission to halve violence against women and girls in a decade. “We continue to deport foreign nationals who commit heinous crimes to ensure they are not left free on our streets. Since the election, over 35,000 individuals have been removed from the UK, including a 14% increase in the number of foreign national offenders.” Adapted by ASEAN Now 2025-07-28 -

BREAKING NEWS Thai & Cambodian Leaders Agree to Ceasefire Following Malaysia Talks
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an unconditional ceasefire to end days of intense border clashes, following a high-level meeting in the Malaysian capital. The ceasefire is set to take effect at midnight, 28 July . The talks, held at the official residence of Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in Putrajaya, were convened under his leadership as ASEAN Chair and brought together Thai Acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet, along with their respective delegations. Also in attendance were the U.S. and Chinese ambassadors to Malaysia, underscoring the international concern over the escalating violence that had resulted in large-scale displacement on both sides of the Thai-Cambodian border. Ceasefire Declared Without Preconditions At a joint press briefing after the talks, Prime Minister Anwar praised both leaders for their commitment to peace, describing the outcome as a “critical first step toward de-escalation and the restoration of regional stability.” “Both Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to a complete and unconditional ceasefire, effective from midnight local time,” Anwar confirmed. “This marks an essential milestone in reducing tensions and creating a path to sustainable peace.” Prime Minister Hun Manet echoed the sentiment, calling the discussions “very constructive,” and emphasised the urgency of halting hostilities. He noted that the conflict had already displaced approximately 300,000 people across the two nations. He extended his thanks to Prime Minister Anwar for facilitating the talks, and also acknowledged the role of former U.S. President Donald Trump and the Chinese government for supporting mediation efforts. He further expressed appreciation to Phumtham for his “constructive engagement” throughout the negotiation process. Follow-Up Military and Diplomatic Meetings Planned To support the ceasefire implementation, Anwar announced that military commanders from both countries will hold an informal meeting at 07:00 on Tuesday, 29 July. A more formal gathering, led by ASEAN’s defence attachés, is scheduled for 4 August. Hun Manet voiced optimism that the ceasefire would pave the way for hundreds of thousands of displaced citizens to return to normal life. “It is time to rebuild trust and confidence between Cambodia and Thailand,” he said.
