Whilst the Tories ready themselves to yet again play the immigration card, an analysis of the Census by the think-tank Demos reveals that almost half of ethnic minority residents in England and Wales now live in areas where white British people are in a minority.
According to 2011 Census statistics 4.6 million minority Britons (45% of the minority population) were living in these areas, defined as those where less than half of the population are white British. As the Census group “white British” comprises all people who consider themselves white and are British citizens, it means that it is far more inclusive than merely English, Scots. Welsh and Irish – that is, ethnic British. Logically a fair skinned Turk in possession of a British passport would be classified as “white British”.
According to Demos: “Looking at the white population more generally (including non-British whites), about 41 per cent of ethnic minorities (4.1m people) live in wards that are less than half white. This compares with only around 1 million (25% of the minority population) living in white minority areas at the last Census in 2001.”
Interestingly the think-tank attribute this phenomenon to “white British people choosing not to move to minority-dominated areas.”
Curiously the report does not address the reasons why white people prefer to move from, rather than to, minority-dominated areas – a peculiar trend considering the “benefits” arising from immigration and the boundless “enrichment” on offer.
In these areas, according to the researchers, white-flight Brits are being replaced by immigrants or by the often huge natural growth of the minority population.
Demos concludes: “Over time, the end result of this process is a spiral of white British demographic decline” – a process sometimes described as “ethnic cleansing”.
One has to ask whether it really required an in-depth survey to be conducted when a simple tour of the London boroughs or the formerly English cities/towns of Birmingham, Leicester, Slough and Luton would have sufficed to have put the matter beyond reasonable doubt.
The Demos report then makes an incredibly insensitive claim: “the research also reveals a positive side to the story, with ethnic minorities spreading out more into white-dominated parts of the country. Ethnic minorities are becoming less rare in rural and provincial England: there are now fewer than 800 wards (out of a total of 8,850) that remain over 98 per cent white compared with more than 5,000 in 2001.”
Why exactly, from the indigenous British perspective, is this development “positive” – when all the evidence points to immigration being an unmitigated disaster?
The unfairness of this situation where elections in particular are concerned is that, put in simplistic terms, in many regions the naturalised immigrant vote (including second and third-generation immigrants) now outnumbers the indigenous British vote. This allows “Democracy” to work against Britain like a weapon-of-mass-destruction, by ensuring that in ever-more wards and constituencies the councillor or MP will always be whichever candidate most impresses the immigrant vote. Thus the indigenous British voters are an expanding minority in their own country! We really ought to introduce a two-tier voting system, where immigrants of first, second and third generations have different voting slips which are only counted in the event of a tied vote from the indigenous voters. This would be entirely fair for the native British. Probably it is far too late to ever happen.
Talk about rubbing the White folks noses in the shit!!!!
Funny isn’t it how it’s okay for ethnics to displace real Brits but “racist” the other way around! Then again the Brits have only themselves to blame – less time watching the box and more engagement with reality would be a start.
I lived up until 2 years ago in an an area that was, by the time I left, about 90% immigrant; I now live in an area which is the opposite, ie about 10% immigrant, & I feel so much better here, feeling like a foreigner in my own country was awful.
Sadly, it is only a matter of time before the whole country has been so swamped by immigration that we, the native people of Britain, will inevitably become a minority in our own homeland. I despair with the majority of my fellow Britons who simply shrug their shoulders and make the pathetic excuse that “it’s too late to do anything about it”. It is NOT TOO LATE. If we make a united stand now we CAN turn this around. All those who bury their heads in the sand are blind and foolish. Once we are a minority in our own homeland it really WILL BE TOO LATE. Act now or suffer the consequences. It takes courage and strength to stand your ground. How many Britons have any today?
I live in Havering just outside London and changes are clearly happening thick and fast.
Being next to Barking and Dagenham the effects of immigration is moving outwards to us.
Massive amounts of new housing are suddenly being needed.
