Perpetrators of hate crimes - about 170,000 a year - are up to 1 in 400 people (about 0.25% of population) or maybe 1 in 500 people [if many people are multiple offenders]

But this 0.25% of population - and the 2-3% proud of overtly racist views - are certainly not amenable to reduced net migration
