These figures DO NOT 'show that Ireland saw a rise in major crimes like sexual offences', as the article states. Police recorded crime and prevalence of crime are not the same thing, and it is wiser to use self-report data to understand prevalence (1/2) thejournal.ie/garda-provisio…

The BBC asked me about the possibility that the promotion of Luton Town to the Premier League led to a decrease in crime, and of course I had to talk about measurement and causality😂 (I also showed the world that I am the only person who doesn’t use the dark mode in RStudio)

Excellent example of why it’s important to understand how crime data was generated before you analyse it: Metropolitan Police changed the software it uses to record details of people who have been arrested and the number of people recorded as being arrested for murder dropped by ~80%.
