Sorry, but that's PC crap brillo pad. Try checking out the actual facts. Shooting/knife crime, drugs, vice trade, identity theft and credit card fraud, pickpocketing in London, scrap metal theft, all a great deal to do with immigrant/foreign gangs.
These crimes necessarily have an international dimension these days, drugs quite obviously so, scrap metal mostly goes to China, women tricked into sex trade come from eastern europe and are smuggled by eastern europeans, children are trafficked from Africa, some 70 or so young kids go missing every year, almost all Africans. The days of the Krays when gangs controlled little patches of the East End are long gone.
