The relationship between race and crime in the United Kingdom is the subject of academic studies, government surveys, media coverage, and public concern. Under the Criminal Justice Act 1991, section 95, the government collects annual statistics based on race and crime.[1][2][n 1]
These statistics have highlighted differences in rates of arrest and imprisonment for racial and ethnic groups. Some commentators have suggested cultural explanations for these differences.[citation needed] As of 2022 17% of hate crimes in the United Kingdom are conducted against Jews, which account for 0.5% of the British population.[4] 39% of hate crimes are conducted toward the Muslim population which accounts for 6.5% of the British populaiton.[5][4]
