A ranking of crimes per constituency in the last year, by CrimeSpotlightUK, has seen a number of Yorkshire constituencies feature in the top 50.

These include Leeds South, in eighth place, which had 28,020 crimes in the last year, and whose MP is Hilary Benn.

Bradford West, whose MP is Naz Shah, had 23,096 crimes, and placed twelfth in the table.

The constituency also ranked sixth for violence and sexual offences, sixth for public order offences, and tenth for drug offences.

In terms of overall crimes, Cities of London and Westminster came in first place in the ranking with 89,446 crimes reported in the last year; Birmingham Ladywood came in second place with 38,111 crimes; and Holborn and St Pancras came in third place with 36,090 crimes.

Lawrence Newport, of CRUSH CRIME, said: "This data from CrimeSpotlightUK paints a terrible picture of crime in Bradford West.

"Britain has seen an explosion in phone thefts, shoplifting, and robberies.

"The majority of these offences are committed by a tiny number of career criminals.

"We know the solution: jail career criminals to crush crime rates by up to 90 per cent.

"We need to use our limited prison space effectively.

"The government must take career criminals off our streets - giving police more powers to pursue them, and instructing judges that the more crimes someone has committed, the longer their sentence must be."
