600,000 white Londoners move-out last decade as1.6 million ethnic immigrants to London change British capital's cultural fabric


White Britons are now the minority (45%) in London
 
Some 3.7million Londoners classified themselves as white British in 2011 – down from 4.3million in 2001 – despite the city’s population increasing by nearly one million over the decade to 8.2million, The Daily Mail reports.

The census shows the population of England and Wales was swollen by nearly four million immigrants in a decade of 
sweeping social change.

London’s population has been especially enlarged by immigrants. Three million foreign-born people now live in the capital. 

Asians (India/Pakistan/Bangladeshi) comprise 18%. Black Londoners – including Africans, black Britons and those from the Caribbean – make up 13 per cent.
