Statistics don't really support the notion that the whites are being left behind.
What pisses some whites off (myself included) is the following - I am very very happy to have the diversity of people and communities in the UK, and consider them all as British as I am. When it comes to a council or other public body describing an area though, its diversity is celebrated (quite rightly), but by its under-reporting or complete lack of reporting, white culture/traditions/contributions are not given the same sales job as non-whites.
Daft really. Everyone contributes something. The problem here is with perception - a simple change could stop a lot of problems.
Re the man dying. I dislike what he stood for and what the BNP stands for. But, in the words of the famous Jewish intellectual and linguist, Noam Chomsky, "If we don't believe in freedom of expression for
people we despise, we don't believe in it at all."

yes very similar to Bradford in some respects where asians and whites continue to leave segregated, white people tend to think they're forgotten and asians taking over and with this sort of racial tension caused people in Bradford to riot. However small strides are being made, and it's just that.
