English & white - not good if you live in London

Chelsea, Kensington, Belgravia, Notting Hill - all very multi-ethnic. I would guess there are relatively few white English people at all in Belgravia for example.People seem to be a bit confused about this announcement on the ethnicity of London - it is still majority white, just not majority *English* white as in "born in the UK". There are now, for example, more than half a million people of French origin in London and 300,000 of Russian origin, to mention only two nationalities.My parents have a house in a part of inner London thought to be upmarket and the area is very diverse, their neighbours are French on one side, Indian on the other - English-origin people are a definite minority.

So you're making out I don't want to be around black/asian people at all? I never said that.

Let me put something forward to you. Would a black/asian family move to Wales? No they wouldn't. Why? Because there are no black/asian families/community there. Does that make them racist also I guess?

Then stfu....those people have as much right to be there as you!! If it's bothering you, you should move from there; if it's bothering them, then they should move.

I said I want to meet more white people. I already have a number of friends who are black and asian and so on. What's wrong with that?

I mean why don't black and asian people go to Wales? Because there's no black/asian people there, that's why. Does that make them racist too?

Do you even live in London or not? You also haven't read my post. White English people in London tend to exist and cohabit in rich areas. I'm not rich and nor is my family so we live in an area where the majority is Asian and black. And the white people that are around me - are polish !!

So we ARE a minority. In most if not all areas of London that aren't middle class, we are.

So you know what it's like to be an ethnic minority and you don't like it. Yet you start complaining that 'they', all these other ethnic minorities are wrong to want to group together whether in the work place or in social circles? Don't you think that's a double-standard.



I like white girls and I've had no problem meeting any. I also see hundreds of white girls every day despite living in a council state which you've suggested would only contain non-white people precisely because it's a council estate (lolwhat?).



I can tell them apart by how much more traditionally narrow-minded they are. That's why I find London amazing. There's much less room for racism and general intolerance.



Some white people whine about it, yes. But not any that I've met and I wouldn't mix with any that do.

Sorry I forgot that you're black and asian and speak for the entire community. There are black/asian people in Wales. The only reason I wouldn't move to a certain area was if it was known for containing many racist people.

Sorry to break the news to you, but there is a huge number of Asians in Wales in Cardiff, Swansea etc and considerably large populations of black people.

It's only the countryside areas where there are only white people.

You don't seem too intelligent.

White people are still a majority mate. I am south asian and went to a very white school. At university I met many asians. I can honestly say I liked both my very different type of mates. I know this sounds cliche, but I do find it enriching. It's not liike the white race is being wiped out, then I might understand. London has a lot of other europeans.

Anyway mate, this one if for you:

It's the other way around. I'm annoyed that I'm a minority in the capital of England and yet it's fine for asian and black people because they are surrounded by their own. As mentioned before, you don't see them in Wales do you? No, that's because none of their own are around them. So they point the finger yet ironically they cluster together to be a majority.

What makes you think that people would tell you this openly? As I said before, it's taboo - doesn't mean noone thinks similarly.

You've not answered my question. I'm posting it below for convenience.

Thanks for telling me that twice - very intelligent of you young man!

'Across the English regions and Wales, the survey found that Wales was the least ethnically diverse area - some 2.9 million whites made up 96% of residents.' BBC NEWS.

So 4% ethnics then.

You don't seem too intelligent.

I ignored it on purpose because it's a stupid question.

And England has 80% whites, 8 out of 10 are white

Is that not good enough for you?
