I think you're right. Certainly seem to be more Brits heading to NYC each year.

Why have the white British left London ?

if you want to do some sort of over the top, dick van dyke style parody you have to have at least one "gor blimey guv,nor you're a right toff and no mistake".

Yes , they're the ones, people like gwylan and herr tubthumper who "loved the multicultural buzz" but f***ed off back to sussex as soon as the first african kissed his teeth at them.

Actually the stats are wrong. 80% of Londoners are white, they just can't be added to fill in census's.
I admit though that since The Trotters moved to Surrey numbers have dropped a little.

Eh? I left London purely and simply because a 2-bed place no longer suited my needs and I couldn't afford anywhere for a family. I bought a 4-bed semi in Brighton for nearly £60k cheaper than my 2-bed flat in Tooting.
As I've said many times, I'd have stayed in London if I could have afforded to (Mrs G is a born-and-bred Londoner and still gets homesick) and if by any chance the make-up of our area changed and we were the only white people on the street, I'd have no problem with that - that was the case when I lived in Bradford. I don't give a toss what colour or nationality my neighbours are so long as they don't give me any grief.

For someone brought up in Whitehawk there is a difference as the housing along Wilson Avenue and some side roads were private build. Those residents lived in Whitehawk but didn't live on the estate. I lived in Whitehawk on the estate between 1965 and 1978.
There is of course one huge hole in your argument Bushy; I have subsequenty moved to an equally racially mixed city. But carry on.

Not in a million f***ing years is berlin anywhere near as mixed as london.
I just thought it was funny that you got irritated with someone for trying to 'out London' you. I respond to your posts occasionally as, although I usually disagree with you, at least you can argue coherently. Take it as a compliment.
I understand the point your making but their experience is still valid.

they saw to that years ago. i would not hold berlin up as a beacon of multiculturalism. on sticky ground historically.
blah blah blah berlin wasnt a nazi stronghold far too cosmopolitan etc etc. still Head Office though wasnt it.
Okay, to be precise it is 60% white in London versus 71% in Berlin. Berlin has a huge Turkish community which, unlike most other cities, lives in the centre.......just like me. Not equal but hardy not 'anywhere near' and not a place where someone who is allegedly squeamish of immigrants would run to is it?

You're showing more ignorance here. Do some research before you make a fool of yourself.

Whitehawkers aren't that pretentious to say "I live in Whitehawk , ACTUALLY"
