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.
