It was indeed.


Why was that? They realised that many disaffected South Londoners moved out to Welling and its environs because they saw "their" South London changing before their very eyes so they thought that some people there would have an affinity with them.


Luckily, they were moved on.

Indeedy. It will e fascinating seeing that 1971 census as in the late 1960's there was hardly a School that had more than a handful of Non-Whites. My School had 4 out of 1,100 kids. ( Leo Solomons/Banda-Atila/Festus Fairwhether and Worrel Sterling) thats 1965-1971. I do not ever recall seeing any Non-White in any Primary School in South London, but there, presumably, must have been some Non-White Guys.

TLS


LSE report by Tony Travers, 2006; as follows:


"By 1961, the number of London residents born in the ?New Commonwealth? was 242,000, providing a broad approximation of the overall level of the ?ethnic minority? population. This number grew to 583,000 by 1971"


Easy to miss at the time I guess.

I appreciate my underperformance,;-)


Absolutely Hugsy! I mean can you positively imagine the provocation of an alternative view that many people, born in England/Britain actually choose to preserve a "traditionally" English/British lifestyle in England/Britain!!


How outrageous an idea is that, on an internet forum set deep in the heart of The Capital of England?


Some people have shown commendable restraint when dealing with that whole concept!


Bravo! I say!

We're discussing social and cultural issues, not whether one race is superior to another.


Precisement Jeremy.


Nobody is saying that one race is superior or inferior to any other but to not realise major cultural diffeences betwen certain races who inhabit Britain is rikkidoodalous, as the Late Hylda Baker used to say.


Not to realise that different Ethnic Groups and Races CHOOSE to spend time and socialise, often exclusively, solely with other Members of that same Race or Ethnicity is ostrich-like to put it mildly.

I see that people in Belfast are exvercising their rights to maintain a homogenous culture in the face of swarthy provocation by people opting to hang around with others of their own ilk (in about two houses by the sounds of things).


How noble.

I'm guessing the viloent b@stards will tend to use Tony's observations as support?


In case Tony is unaware of the real consequences of his jinogoist views, here's the link


Nasty sh*ts, except TLS, who of course just thinks that the world would be a better place if we, well, you know...


In fact, it's a pretty good thing that the residents of suburbia don't p*ss in your letterbox and assault your wife to send one back to the city?

A few friends and I watched a film last night. This quote seemed quite apt given the current topic. Excuse the pop-philosophy nature:


It is said that what is called the Spirit of an Age is something to which one cannot return. That this spirit gradually dissipates is due to the world's coming to an end. In the same way, a single year does not have just spring or summer. A single day, too, is the same. For this reason, although one would like to change today's world back to the spirit of one hundred years or more ago, it cannot be done. Thus it is important to make the best out of every generation.

"extreme patriotism in the form of aggressive foreign policy".[1] In practice, it refers to the advocation of the use of threats or actual force against other countries in order to safeguard what they perceive as their country's national interests, and colloquially to excessive bias in judging one's own country as superior to others ? an extreme type of nationalism.


Thats a definition of Jingoism Huguenot.


I've long since realised that your views of my beliefs do not take account anything that I've actually written but you have excelled yourself this time.


Take the utter garbage you have written above about my "jingoistic" views, lets see shall we....


Based on the above definition, apart from the fact that:


1/ My patriotism is not extreme in any way. OR THAT


2/ I'm not agressive in any way and do not approove of any aggression on racial matters OR THAT


3/ I do not advocate the use of threats or actual force against anyone from any other country in order to safeguard anything OR THAT


4/ I do not use ANY bias, excessive or otherwise, in judging one's own country as superior to others


Other than those 4 caveats, you might have a point.


I even wrote on my previous post prior to yours that "Nobody is saying that one race is superior or inferior to any other .."..


What I AM acknowledging that there ARE Cultural differences between most/all Racial Groups and that the overwhelming majority of people in this Country of ALL Races would choose to live and socialise amongst their own Race, preferably.


I wasn't going to add what I observed yesterday but it simply re-inforced what I learnt around 25/30 years ago and have observed on most days since.


In the White Area of New Eltham last night I saw 6 Guys from another Race altogether then 2 minutes driving time later, another 17/18 of the same Racial Group and every Member of that Group were of the same Racial type ( Black in these cases).


I did not see any other Black Guys through the whole of driving through New Eltham apart from these Groups.


These 22/23 Teenagers clearly CHOSE to be solely with their own Racial Group.


I'm sure if asked they would say that they can identify more with their own Racial Group, have a shared Culture and have, generally, more in common with each other than anyone else.


Nothing wrong with White Guys/Jewish people/Asians/East Europeans/Turkish/Greeks/Black Guys doing that but NOT to notice that this, "generally", is the case throughout the streets of London is either ignorant of the truth or delusional, as it doesn't fit in to the way YOU WANT IT TO BE....


As I've said before it does NOT mean we should not get on well with each other and treat each other with equal respect but, ultimately, most people prefer living and socialising within their own Race, whether some like it or not....

Well I don't. What's more, I know many others that don't too. In fact, I couldn't give a rat's ar*e what race people are that I socialise with.

As someone who, almost certainly, socialises with a higher proportion of friends from different Races than anyone else on EDF, I tend to agree Sherwick but it looks like we are in the minority Nationwide ....

Only in your mind.

You seem an honest Guy.


As you venture around London over the next few weeks tell me your observations about who socialises with who ( NOT work related, obviously).


If you can't see that most Students and adults interact with their own Race, PRIMARILY I'll be astonished Sherwick...

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
    • I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.
    • Yup Juan is amazing (and his partner can't remember her name!). Highly recommend the wine tastings.  Won't be going to the new chain.
