Migrants account for 80% of train theft arrests in the UK
Foreign nationals make up 80% of UK train theft arrests, per GB News data.
A GB News report released on 15 January 2026 found that foreign nationals are responsible for 80 % of all train theft arrests in the UK, despite representing only about 10 % of the population. The data, compiled by the Office of Rail and Road, highlights a disproportionate crime rate linked to migrant communities across major rail networks, including London and Manchester. Authorities point to a surge in migration from Eastern Europe and Africa over the past decade as a potential factor. The British Transport Police report a 15 % rise in arrests since 2023 and say further investigation is underway.
