Irish Examiner (Republic of Ireland) 19/7/2022 News The state of hate: Trends in hate crime over the past decade What is the true picture of hate crime? By hate crime, we mean offences motivated by hostility based on race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity. In England and Wales, there are two contrasting sets of figures. An official survey of people’s experiences of offending, the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW), suggests hate crime has been in steep decline for well over a decade. But over a similar period, the number of hate crimes recorded by the 43 police forces has nearly trebled. The Home Office attributes much of that increase to greater awareness and reporting of hate crimes, and improvements in the way police record them. This short report explores the figures in more detail and considers other possible reasons for the rise. We analysed two publicly available datasets [1] about hate crime and examined other relevant statistics. Interviews were conducted with five experts in crime and justice policy, academia, hate crime investigations, prevention and victim support services.
