Stats from the recent census (2011) show that London now has a non white British majority, whilst minorities have increased to about 8m nation wide.

Big discussion on R4 about London and whether this trend is inevitable for global cities (London, NY, LA etc) that act as global magnets for talent for the whole world.

What do you reckon?

I think students etc and short term visa visitors are included in this but its true. I work Mon-Fri in London and I do feel sometimes like the outsider.

Never really liked the South. We're all British but theres a pretty clear difference between North/South

Whats the problem with non-whites?

Its interesting that posters in this thread seem to equate non-white London with it being dangerous, not English and feeling like an outsider. All based on skin colour.

I guess good old Britain has a long way to go.
