Well fine, hunny, go and tell them that millions of European pale-skins are going to live in their cities and see how "welcoming" they are then.
Proof of the pudding, and all that.
Yes, because you know exactly how they would feel based on... what? Total supposition? Your own prejudice and stupidity?
You realise that you're basically saying that you're allowed to be a bigot because you think other people might be? Does that seem logical to you?

Exactly. So you can't accurately predict immigration either, since it is largely economic. Which means your talk about being 'outnumbered' is baseless.

No. I don't know whether they would or not, although my direct experience suggests they like white people.

You realise that this map doesn't prove anything about 'non white immigrants'? It refers only to % of white British.
It's important to be accurate when you discuss these things. Or you an be accused of having an agenda.

Yet white British people are already a minority in London so there is no need to predict future immigration.
It is interesting the way 28% of the votes going to the UKIP at a by-election appears to have prompted the opposition leader to admit that immigration has been too high and has hurt the working class.
Still, I imagine he will do nothing about it if he ever gets into power. The noises he is making is interesting nonetheless.

I suspect however that Indians would be less welcoming if they were a minority in their own cities.
Of course, I could be wrong. But then so could you.

I dont like the way you keep referring to it being 'white british' losing their ID.... what about the 'Carribean British' or the 'Mixed Race British'.... we are also losing our 'English' ID and language!!

I'm not saying there aren't issues surrounding immigration - wages being a key one (although you sound to me like you're economically fairly liberal, so presumably wage competition is something you would consider good?)

I should make it clear that my child is mixed race British so I apolgise if I have given the impression that I see this as an exclusively white British issue.

By the same token, why don't the boards of directors of large British companies outsource their jobs to Indians to save costs?
edit on 6-3-2013 by ollncasino because: (no reason given)
your pessimistic, racist outlook
cliched rubbish
what is this constant need for equivalence amongst racists?
Your own prejudice and stupidity?
you're basically saying that you're allowed to be a bigot
just an attempt by you to excuse your racism

But you have done this repeatedly, either by mistake or because you think it furthers your cause and scares people a bit more to conflate race and immigration.

Could I refer you to the title of the OP. The headline is the BBC's, not mine.
Why have the white British left London?
Of course not all British people leaving London are white but the BBC article choose to dwell on that aspect.
It is rather unfair if you then accuse me of trying to scare people by doing the same.

In a couple of cases you've used evidence that confuses race with nationality, or incorrectly suggested things like the British are in a minority, and I can't see why you would do that except to scare people.
Originally posted by JuniorDisco
To put it plainly, you've said things that aren't true, or are based on incorrect assumptions and evidence in order to further your admitted agenda. With the greatest of respect, I find that a bit suspect.
