Today’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) crime stats for the year up to September 2025 show decreases in GM for shoplifting (down 7%), robbery (down 10%), theft from person (down 24%), and burglary (down 24%).

This is all part of our commitment to faithfully recording all crime and investigating all reasonable lines of enquiry for all crime.
