Basically, 10% are immigrants, you can't read any more into it than that.
| Who said anything about ethnic minorities? You might want to actually go back and read what I wrote.

Come back when you've locked up at least 200k

The report has two groupings - Ethnic Minority Groups (22%) and then Foreign Nationals (10%).
So where are you getting this figure of a a quarter of our prison population being "immigrants and their children"?
Please explain as I may have misunderstood.

| I don't mean we're locking up their children as children, I mean 1st or 2nd generation immigrants.

| I know what you mean - but where are you taking the figure for these 1st and 2nd generation immigrants to add to the 10% to make up the quarter of the prison population?

Incidentally, taking men and women together, immigrants still only make up just over 10% of the total prison population.

Is this a competition to see which nation has the most criminals?
