'For visible Muslims in particular, the top deck of a bus or a half-empty train carriage can mean threatening behaviour, verbal abuse, or even violent attack simply because of their faith,' says head of Muslim group
Racial and religious hate crimes on public transport across the UK have increased in recent years, with police data showing more than 3,200 racially motivated offenses recorded in 2024–25, according to figures released Friday.
Data from the British Transport Police shows racial hate crimes recorded across England, Wales, and Scotland rose from 2,827 cases in 2019–20 to 3,258 in 2024–25, reflecting a steady upward trend on rail and bus networks.
Police forces have also reported a rise in religious hate crimes, particularly targeting Muslims in England and Wales. At the same time, Scotland has seen a sharp increase in racially motivated offenses over the same period.
According to data obtained by The Guardian, the number of religious hate crime cases recorded by the British Transport Police increased from 343 in 2019–20 to 419 in 2023–24, before falling slightly to 372 in 2024–25.
Akeela Ahmed, chief executive of the British Muslim Trust, said the figures reflect reports her organization has been receiving from across the country and urged authorities “to take urgent and meaningful action.”
“For visible Muslims in particular, the top deck of a bus or a half-empty train carriage can mean threatening behaviour, verbal abuse, or even violent attack simply because of their faith,” Ahmed said.
She said incidents reported on public transport are among the most complex and distressing cases her group handles.
Ahmed added it was alarming that a significant number of reported assaults, both verbal and physical, have involved children travelling to and from school, warning that limited CCTV coverage on buses and at stops allows perpetrators to escape accountability.
“Abuse, intimidation and violence – especially that which is motivated by hate – will never be tolerated, and we have acted swiftly and decisively when we receive reports of hate crimes on the rail network,” a British Transport Police spokesperson was quoted by The Guardian as saying.
Publick Transport is to be strongly avoided.
Mandami not withstanding, rugged individualism in personal transportation is to be celebrated.

The reverse is true. This is 1984.
I guess Mudslimes gang raping girls in the UK is not included as a hate crime.
And chocolate rations are increased to 20 grams...
Why do some people insist on putting dogs and cats in the same cage?
It is a mystery as to what is behind the rise in hatred and violence. Here is a clue. Smell their left hand.
Imagine that . Some people resent being colonized by hostile invaders who hate the West!
The poor dears.
Have they pearls to clutch?
In America, we call “verbal assaults” “Free Speech”.
Can’t have that in Oceania.

How many young British girls were raped by muslims with impunity?
Hundreds of thousands per year.
Grok:
“ Estimates of the number of young British women and girls victimized by grooming gangs—typically referring to group-based child sexual exploitation (CSE) involving rape, abuse, and trafficking—are difficult to pinpoint precisely due to under-reporting, inconsistent data collection, and varying definitions across agencies. Grooming gangs represent a subset of broader child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE), which affects predominantly girls under 18. There is no official national total for victims specifically from grooming gangs over time, as many cases go undetected or unreported. However, government reports, inquiries, and audits provide partial figures based on recorded offences and identified cases. Overall CSAE is estimated at around 500,000 children annually in the UK, though this includes all forms, not just group-based CSE. “
why do I have the feeling the reverse is true? maybe because the reverse is true in the US and Australia and just about every Christian nation the Moose people wander to?
Perfect!
Sent to my UK and Aussie buddies from Sar-El service in Israel.
There are a very few conservative left there…in UK and Aussieland.
I suspect being Jewish in the UK is far more dangerous.
And every baby born of these rapes has some level of retarded, incestuous genes
and reduces the National IQ.
