The truth about London 😭🇬🇧

[@littleboots9800]

Its not complicated, ppl settle around their own ppl because its easier when theres an existing community that already speaks english and your own language, has contacts, has businesses that cater specifically to your needs and can employ you etc. It happens organically. Ppl gravitate to a taste of home. If youre a Turk, youve never lived in England, do you want to live somewhere where there are other Turks for help and community, where there are Turkish supermarkets, barbers and restaraunts or do you want to live amongst Somalians or Poles? How would the government or these "forces" even manage to corall you all in one area? Only asylum seekers are dispersed to cluster groups (for their benefit, certainly not for ours,) and this guy is talking about groups that didn't even come that way.

Maybe down to house prices or if there have relatives in the area. It's the some throughout the country

[@user-hl8mf8pp7r]

Also comes down the the jobs that where in the area that people came over from other countries to do. Then the same cultures tend to go to as there's friends and family and it's familiar to them they feel safe

Good point overall but tbf there is shisha smoke in all the expensive parts of London.

I don’t think it’s deliberate segregation, i think it is a first generation immigrants first thing to do when they move to London. You make friends and meet people you have more in common with. The second and third generation person who goes to school and gets a job is more likely to become acclimatised and inter-grained into the culture and start their future in different places. Segregation in London will fizzle out in years to come i predict

It is based on minority groups wanting to live with their own. London is a dump but if you look at Manchester, Nottingham, Huddersfield and Leeds the minorities generally mix. I live in Basford, Nottingham and am British Greek, our area has people from all backgrounds, religions and their is a Greek Orthodox Church, African Churches, West Indian Churches, Couple of Mosques, couple of Gudwara, Hindu temple, and Synagogue in Basford alone. Our community is very ethnically mixed yet their are sizeable populations of loads of ethnic groups and that is one area of Nottingham. Actually Slough is very ethnically mixed and Croydon somewhat, but I noticed that London, Birmingham and Bradford do share that weird mindset.
