Surname map of Britain.

Pleasantly surprised to see that Leicester still has common English names. Not quite overun yet it seems.

What would you do if it didn't have English names? Would you move?

I wonder why it seems to be common with ethnic minorities to have the same surnames? Yes smith and jones is popular but there is still an overwhelming white majority. Surely there should be more diversity in the ethnic surnames? Not gonna lose any sleep over it though

It's more the definition of a surname, I use Singh, which isn't technically a surname, it is the name given to all Sikh men. Hindu's have caste based names dependant on there caste status/occupation, hence large numbers of the same name.

Well I live in the county so it doesn't affect me.

And the fact that somes areas of Leicester are 95%+ Asian proves that many white people do move when their areas get overun. I certainly wouldn't want to live on St Peters Road or anywhere near that place.

So you'd move because there are other people in the street who are different race or nationality to you?

Are you scared that there's some Four Lions shit going on with bombs being made in each of their garages?

Don't act like it has never happened!

I remember my nan telling me when she lived in Belgrave before the Asians came and the change of local population that happened.

Its pretty common, it wouldnt bother me if i wa the only white person on my street. I don't really know why it would bother anyone, but it obviously does, what I do find amusing is those who moan about immigrants taking over and they bomoan the fact they dont intergrate are often the same people who want to live surrounded by white people, ethnic minorities are doing the same thing.

No, but I would move if my street was becoming a white minority.

In fact recently an Asian bloke moved in to my street about 2 years ago and we have never had any problems, in fact we get on as well as anybody else on the street. But if it got to the stage where there were more more foreigners than whites on my street yes I would move. This is England, so there should be no street in the country where English people are a minority. Unfortunately, this is the case in much of the City.

What is "English people" to you?

Is it people born in England?

Is it people born in the UK?

Is it people with British passports?

Is it people who can trace their ancestry back to England before the Norman conquest?

Is it people who can trace their ancestry back to England since the unification of English tribes?

Is it white people from wherever?

Honest question.

so you think anyone who isnt born in the uk shouldn't be able to choose where they live? How would that work?

I don't think it's about race, more about culture and intergration. I wouldn't want to live on a street where no one spoke English. That would apply to some areas in England now and that would make me feel uncomfortable as I'm a neighbourley person who likes to chat with anyone.

I've filed in as a player for a couple of cricket matches in the past for my asian mates and I've been the only white player on the team, all English spoken so it wasn't an issue, had they all been speaking in Gudrajti and I couldn't understand them I doubt I would have done it.

It's hard to define, but when I say English people I mean white people born here who's family go back generations in this country. I know for a fact that I was born in Leicestershire, as was my dad, and his dad, and his dad, and his dad etc.

A second generation immigrant is in the eyes of the law, just as English as me, but I don't think it should be that way.

If I had my way, very very few people born outside the UK would be living here anyway, definitely not enough to engulfe entire areas and displace the original community.

So, No non-white people however long they've been British or lived here?

What Poles?

Or Scots?

Or Welsh?

What about people from Yorkshire who haven't lived in Leicestershire should they be allowed?

Do you think I should be banned from living in France and forced to live in Leicester because that's where I was born and my mother was born (and probably people going back generations in my family)?

How far do you feel we should be allowed to move from our place of birth? No outside the city limits? Not into the city if we're a county babe?

What about studying outside of the city we're born in?

What about holidays - and work - should others be allowed into our birth area and vice-versa?

Again these are all serious questions I'd like to try to understand the limits that you are setting of the human population.

Hardly makes you more entitled pal, it just means you're as ****ing inbred as I am (my ancestry is pretty similar).

I've got mates born in Leicestershire, the sons of second and third generation immigrants and they're just as proud of where they're from as I am but by the same token celebrate their differences from me (usually with a bit of good natured piss-taking on both sides). I guess you've just never mixed with people who are different from you, which is quite sad.

Either that or an Asian girl once refused to toss you off in a bus shelter or something.

I think we've gone a little off topic here, and (this time) I haven't said anything offensive?

I'll try to sum up what I mean and respond to what you guys have said.

I don't really know why I see things the way I do. I see White British people as the 'rightful' occupants of the country, and feel uncomfortable at times driving through parts of Leicester with big Asian majorities, and feel like 'they' shouldn't be there - like they've wrongfully claimed part of our City. The same way we wrongly colonised countries in the colonial times and drove off the natives, I think the same is happening against us here. I see white british population numbers dropping and dropping in the future centuries until Britain is no longer British, but more an extension of India. I feel threatened by it all for our history and culture to be all but gone in a couple hundred years. I fear Middle Eastern immigration is the grey squirrel of the animal world to this country.

As individuals I get on fairly well with most non-white people I have met and know. But I see the percentage of non-white people living in Leicester and elsewhere and it just seems and feels 'wrong'.

I dunno, I know most people don't agree with me and that my views are old fashioned and probably racist/fascist/xenophobic or whatever you label it. Sorry but that's just my seemingly innate beliefs on the subject.

To be honest i find this abit sad.

it's funny whenever people like acooling and El Empty post things, they get hostile replies back with no substance.

I can see what acooling is saying, would another country, say Greece,Japan or china really tolerate mass immigration on the scale we have seen in this country.

Just say if white british became a minority in this country, would people say this was a success? I'm willing to bet some people would. How we should bless and thank multiculturalism for this remarkable feat of living in such a utopia.

If it is wrong to say Britain should say as a white british majority, surely it is wrong to say that it should not.

We are lead to believe multiculturalism brings many positives to our country whether this is true or not, there isn't much in the way of discussing it. This is wrong.

Leicester is such a unique city

Why the hangup with whether a person is "white" which is a strange idea on it's own or not white?
