The only reason Britain has female genital mutilation or a forced marriage problem is because of immigration, says Patrick Christys

Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, Somalians, Afghans, Indians and the Nigerians top the list for forced marriages.

35 per cent of cases last year involved victims aged 17 or younger. They're often flown back to somewhere like a Pakistani village and married against their will, possibly even to their cousin. But six per cent of forced marriages last year happened IN Britain.

It's also worth noting that the majority of cases will go unreported - by definition this is abuse and one would imagine many young women will be too afraid to speak out. And they don't record the religion... we couldn't possibly be allowed to know that information, could we?

Now why would they be afraid to speak out?

Well in the year ending March 2024, there were 2,755 honour-based abuse offences recorded in England and Wales.

Last year it was revealed there'd been a 60 per cent increase in honour-based violence. Is that native British people? I think it's a foreign problem.

Do you know what Britain has seen a huge increase in? Female genital mutilation. It's 15 per cent up.

There were 14,355 attendances about FGM in the 2023-24 financial year, according to the NHS.

There was also a rise in the number of individual women and girls who visited NHS services about FGM, from 5,870 in 2022-23 to 6,655 in 2023-24.

It's on the rise in Luton, Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes, it's on the rise in Brighton and Hove, and we've had cases where a woman was convicted for taking a three-year-old British girl to Kenya to have her genitals mutilated.

You might not know this, but the NHS has opened eight specialist female genital mutilation walk-in clinics in England. Great - why do we need them? Is it because British people have suddenly started doing it?

The NHS is also hiring specialist inbreeding nurses to cope with the sheer volume of babies born with deformities because their parents are first cousins. Are more Brits marrying their first cousins?

It's interesting that the pro-open borders, pro-mass immigration brigade go very quiet when you point out that violence against women and girls is very common in a lot of African and Middle Eastern countries, and that they are bringing that violence here.

And talking of importing violence, Channel migrants are 24 times more likely to go to jail than Brits.

The only reason Britain has female genital mutilation or an honour-based violence or a forced marriage problem, is because of immigration.
