The BBC reports that violent crimes reported to the police were up 14% in
the UK last year, but a more accurate survey, the British Crime Report
said violent crime actually dropped 3%.


This is probably because the UK doesn't consider that a crime officially
exists until someone is convicted for the crime. Thus, reported crimes
that remain unsolved don't make it into their "more accurate survey".
