and that is just the legal ones who completed the census

Census stats are extrapolated to take account of no returns.

inbarcelona

So the stats are fiddled.....just like everything else the Government tells us.

Joppa

No, scientifically adjusted to make it more or less 100% accurate.

inbarcelona

Like the A level results then?

Be careful what you say. The census was in March, so soon he'll be telling you that many lost their tan during winter and would have seen themselves as white

I wonder if on some Spanish forum there is a conversation re British immigrant numbers to Spain ? Immigration has always gone on some of it good some of it bad. Not all UK immigrants to Spain bother to legalise their position as they should, although with 31 December approaching many are now but I bet not all.

inbarcelona

Yes...I would guess there is a Forum somehwere where the Spanish can slag off the British immigrants. We are immigrants...not expats.
The word expat suggests we think we are on a higher level than immigrants of other nationalities.

inbarcelona

Well those that live here permanently and have not registered for residency are going to have problems after the end of this year.

bobd22

Very true

“Bradford has 36% who are not white British then...that´s bad enough”.

Yes, heaven forbid we have any of those funny brown or black British eh? Clearly only white Brits are acceptable to you.

inbarcelona

It´s not about that. It´s about changing the whole culture of a country.

Given the average percentage across the UK, I am not sure how real the risk is of "changing the whole culture". I think the greater concern/ risk is the failure to integrate immigrant communities, when large cities across the UK have become Balkanized, with significant areas of immigrants that haven't been integrated into the UK mainstream, and worse, apparently don't even want to integrate.
