Not in a million f***ing years is berlin anywhere near as mixed as london.

The largest Turkish communities can be found in Kreuzberg, Neukölln, with substantial populations in Schöneberg, Wedding, Mitte, Spandau, Steglitz.

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?

But you are the immigrant HT.

Something quite remarkable happened in London in the first decade of the new millennium. The number of white British people in the capital fell by 620,000 - equivalent to the entire population of Glasgow moving out.

The consequence, as revealed by the latest census, is that white Brits are now in a minority in London, making up just 45% of its residents.

So where have they gone to - and why did they leave?

I've been analysing and mapping the census data, and what emerges is a much more positive story than some headlines would make you think.

The movement of the white British is often characterised as white flight - the indigenous population forced out of their neighbourhoods by foreign migrants. That may be part of the story, but I think the evidence suggests it is also about working class aspiration and economic success

Full story

BBC News - Why have the white British left London?

Why did you leave? It's likely to be the same for the others in one shape or form.

I've lived in Berlin, and would say that it depends what you mean by 'mixed'. London probably has a much larger number of different minorities, but Berlin has got a smaller number of absolutely massive minority groups: in fact it's the city with the third largest Turkish population in the world (the other two are Istanbul and Ankara).
Where London has the edge I would say (having lived there too) is that London is a lot more tolerant than Berlin, and does a lot more both to respect difference and to integrate minority groups. The Turkish community had to fight pretty hard to get full citizenship rights, even for second and third generation immigrants, and lots of white Germans still refer to second and third generation Turks (who've lived there all their lives and speak German with strong Berlin accents, and don't speak Turkish) as 'Auslaender' (foreigners), whereas in London their equivalents would be seen as black British or British Asians or whatever.

and your point is ? berlin has a lot of captain kirks , big deal.

I'm surprised you have forgotten the point because it's one of only 4 you make.

You stated that I left London because of immigrants.....but I have moved to somewhere which is heaving with immigrants. Is this simple enough for you to comprehend in that uneducated skull of yours?

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.

African do not kiss their teeth, that is the West Indians. Africans make a sort of clicking noise. Then again maybe in that well known part of London. Haywards Heath, Africans do kiss their teeth.

I'm sure Bushy will come and tell you he is correct because only HE has lived in London unlike ANYONE else. Just sit back, roll your eyes and think 'ignorant twat' like the most people do.

1, Now your waffling again.
2, the figures were for a sub ward of Pollards hill, as we were discussing estates. If I wanted to discuss an estate in Mitcham I wouldnt include the whole of Mitcham would I.
3, London mates :wanker:, I doubt you have any London or otherwise.
4, You doubt someone who has lived in London all his life has ever been to Pollards Hill or even passed through it, I think it is plain from this thread who is the clown :jester:

i doubt very much you've been to pollards hill , those figures were for the estate,not the whole of mitcham, you do realise pollards hill is in mitcham dont you ? and why would you go to pollards hill, i lived in south london for most of my life and never had the occasion to go to sydenham , i think you protest too much , you probably come from sevenoaks and wished you came from south london.

thats bollocks for starters. where do you think it originated from???

Thats like saying everything that west indian people do originates from Africa because thats where they originate from. They almost tut, but it sounds like a clicking noise. The rasping sound that people refer to when saying kissing your teeth I have only ever heard West Indians do that.

when asians want to live in their own communties or all in the same street,they're not considered racists

but when white people want to do the same,straight away they're labelled racists
