2021/24543 - LGBT+ and misogynist hate crime
REQUEST
I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act. I wish to request information on the amount of LGBTQ+ hate crime in the last 10 calendar years.
Specifically, I would like information on:
1) The total number of LGBTQ+ hate crimes recorded by your force each year since 2011. Numbers should be broken down by calendar year. If you record homophobic and transgender hate crime separately, please provide data for both.
2) The total number of LGBTQ+ hate crimes recorded by your force each month since June 2010 to the present. Numbers should be broken down by month. If you record homophobic and transgender hate crime separately, please provide data for both.
3) The total number of hate crimes recorded over the same period, for comparison. Numbers should be broken down by calendar year.
In addition: if you have begun collecting data on crimes of violence motivated by misogyny, as the UK government instructed police forces to do in March, please include these initial findings broken down by month.
