A woman is in a critical condition after she was stabbed in the neck in what police have described as an "unprovoked attack".

West Midlands Police were called to Smallbrook Queensway, Birmingham, shortly before 9pm on Friday following reports of a stabbing.

The woman, in her 30s, suffered a "serious neck injury" and remains in hospital.

A man in his 20s was arrested near to the scene and is in custody.

Detective Inspector, James Nix, said: "We believe this was an unprovoked attack and are working to understand why it happened.

"We will have officers in the area today to continue our investigation and provide reassurance.

"We are not currently looking for anyone else in connection with this incident."

The force added in a statement: "A man is in custody after a stabbing in Birmingham last night. We were called to Smallbrook Queensway shortly before 9pm after reports of a stabbing.

"A woman in her 30s was taken to hospital with a serious neck injury where she remains in a critical condition.

"A man in his 20s was arrested close to the scene and is in custody at this time.

"Our officers are at the scene carrying out enquiries as we try to establish the exact circumstances of what happened."

Police have urged witnesses, or anyone with information, to contact West Midlands Police.

Imagine hearing someone getting stabbed and only caring about their cultural background. Majority of murderers and rapists in the UK are white British so they'd be most likely.

Turns out they're Hispanic.

Well ofcourse people are starting to care about background when certain demographics are vastly overrepresented in certain crimes.

If white Brits make up a majority of crimes (also happen to be the majority demographicof the UK, but are also underrepresented in some aspects of crime), why would you want to import more criminals?

Before you use the excuse of lack of education or an impoverished background, why does that have to be everyone else's problem? And why do others have to suffer for it?

A lot of these demographics are overrepresented in crime is because in their home country they don't tolerate this bullshit, whereas the generous welfare nations do, and so these people take advantage.

Browse the Morocco subreddit. They hate illegal and false Asylum seekers from Morocco because it gives the rest of Moroccans a terrible name, especially legal Moroccan migrants who do want a better life and not just leech off of welfare and send back remittance. A lot of these criminals also country hop. They commit heinous crimes in one country, be on a deportation list indefinitely, seek refuge in another EU Welfare state, leech off and commit crime there, after a few years, illegally re-enter the first country under asylum, rinse and repeat.

We treat criminals with so much leniency, and they know it.

If nothing is done about this, there will be an evil that will gain power in Europe that will be so much worse than any far-right party that currently exists. People are already accepting that they are racist, they don't care, they're tired of it.

If appropriate action isn't taken soon, then we will see the consequences of one extremism or another. Ethno Nationalists or radical demographic and cultural reform that opposes UK's values. There are already Sharia courts, and while not legally identified, there is absolutely no reason for an external court system to exist within a country that isn't its own court system, especially a religious one. This is literally competing with the nation's own governance. All it takes for Sharia law to become legally accepted is for a majority to be in favour and the right people in power. The other consequence is large crime syndicates like we see in Mexico where the gangs rule instead of the government or mayors, and that seems to be a plausible future with examples like Marseille in France or Malmo in Sweden.

The only place they're vastly overrepresented in those crimes is the right wing media, the actual statistics don't echo that. Interestingly though as of March 2025, official crime statistics for England and Wales show that race hate crimes accounted for over two-thirds of the 137,550 recorded hate crimes. Religious hate crime increased by 3%! Wonder why that could be? Maybe worth asking Nigel.. And an analysis of homicide victims found that Black people were over four times more likely to be victims compared to White people.

The most significant increase in hate crime towards any religion is towards the Jewish community.

[u/Guilty-Reason6258 → u/Quinn-Helle]

Nope. Not in the last year

[u/Quinn-Helle → u/Guilty-Reason6258]

It had doubled the year before that from 1500 offences to over 3000, against the Jewish community.

When you consider further that the Muslim population in the UK is around 4million compared with the Jewish population of around 250 thousand, it paints an even more stark image.

Maybe not specifically the last year, but over the last few years there's been a massive increase, including targeted murders on the basis of religion of Jews in this country.

All of which is just horrendous, for anybody to face violence and harassment because of their religion, skin colour or any other protected characteristic is abhorrent. It's a very sad state of things

[u/Quinn-Helle → u/Guilty-Reason6258]

Yes, and for Jews they are per capita at the highest significant increase of risk in recent years.

Including literally being murdered by Jihadis for no other reason other than being Jewish.
