London<\/a>’s crime<\/a> rates are only going up as former Metropolitan Police officers claim criminals ‘know they can get away with it’. <\/p>\n

Around 957,481 crimes were reported across London last year, ranging from theft to sexual offences.<\/p>\n

Some 16,789 of these involved a bladed weapon, equalling around 46 knife related crimes a day, the Office for National Statistics<\/a> said. <\/p>\n

Westminster saw 91,380 offences committed, which is more than double that of the next densely populated of Camden, which saw 42,569 crimes reported. <\/p>\n

An ex-police officer told Metro<\/strong> criminals know ‘they can get away with it’ as the rate of convictions is so low. <\/p>\n

Mike Neville – dubbed ‘the super recogniser’ due to how many people he has caught – said shoplifters are even stealing to order. <\/p>\n
