Most of us want to live in safe, welcoming communities.

But this government would rather turn us against each other than tackle real problems. The latest example? Plans to publish a “league table” of criminality by nationality – a move straight out of the far-right's playbook.

This isn’t about keeping anyone safe. It’s about scapegoating. The vast majority of crimes in the UK are committed by British citizens. But instead of investing in the services that prevent harm - from mental health support to youth programmes - ministers are fanning the flames of division and hoping we don’t notice the chaos they’ve created.

Publishing a ranking of nationalities is nothing more........
