Mass EU immigration didn't help the crime rate.

pulwama1990 The per capita murder rate in the UK is 1.2/100k. US is 5.35/100k. El Salvador is 82/100k for comparison.

Homicides were up by 14% from 649 to 739, a continuous year on year increase since March 2014

People are getting angrier. Related to Brexit? The West Midlands and Cornwall are worsening faster than pro-EU London in relation to knife crime.
