The murder rate in London is incredibly low given the number of people who live in the city. I am always amazed how it is not many times higher.
Many London murders, stabbings etc are simply the behavior pattern of the drug culture that prevails, since the present drug culture is regarded by the authorities as of little or no importance it can only be concluded that the murders are also regarded as of little or no importance. One doesn’t need a Post-grad STATS degree to work out that ‘Co-efficient of Correlation’
Men stop killing women. Parents educate your sons.
Cabbels & Ellesar… the victim/perp demographics differ in both cases: Portland’s opioid/homeless crisis is at the root of the issue there.
I am not saying the cities are comparable, just that London is a lot less violent.
As I pointed out London’s murder rate is only slightly higher than the national average, and as a Londoner I get very tired of hearing how crime is ‘out of control ‘ here. I live in a ‘deprived’ inner London borough and have never felt unsafe. The only crime I (and those I know) suffer is theft of bikes and other sellable items.
Rest in peace Omar, I know your family is in pieces for you. You didn’t deserve what happened to you. Our areas become so dangerous but it was always that way, going to the shop was a hit or miss most days. I’m really sorry Omar, and I’m sorry to everyone else on this list. My heart goes out to everyone and their families
Since June there has been a least another 50 murders in London Alone . Why is this not being updated
It is being updated every day – let us know if you think we are missing any cases
Hi Cabbage, yes, the US average is 4x that of the UK, with London only being a bit higher than the national average. I had no idea that Portland was so bad though – it is portrayed as hipsterish/ free thinking/ laid back. I guess the media always has a bias!
As of today Portland homicides are now at 95 eclipsing the previous annual record of 88 which was set in 2021.
I live in Portland, Oregon which has a population of 670,000 and as of
today has had 69 murders. London has a population of 9,500,000 which is 14 times the population of Portland.
Sadiq Khan should be ashamed of himself he has no control of the murders in London. The met police is another useless function where the victims don’t even bother going to them, rape victims Robbery victims etc because they know nothing is going to be done. The only way is we need a strict police force to find the true criminals behind bars … not the false ones . Look at this list of people been murdered it’s shameful and a humiliation.
There was also another killed just off Oxford Street yesterday/day before
This has now been added.
Murder is out of control in London, and the names of the victims rapidly vanish from the main stream media within days.
Your website remembers them.
Thank you for listing all these people. It’s heartbreaking.
