Which predominantly working-class London neighbourhood or suburb is seen as the most white and native British?

Question

Please, before the PC Brigade slings their arrows, I am not some kind of white supremicist or racist jerk of any order. I am merely asking this question with the notion of people's perceptions in mind, and my curiosity of such facets of human psychology.

Answer 1

Brixton

Answer 2

Chingford, Daganhem, Barking BNP areas run the council West London. I dont know about my area is more asians than anything I live Millwall, Isle Of Dogs east london why do you want to know you dont feel comfortable around other ethnicities

Answer 3

A few years ago I would have said Dagenham, but in the last 5-8 years or so the place has changed almost beyond recognition, partially because of a very rapid amount of immigration (making it less "white and native british"), and partially because a lot of new housing has been constructed and purchased by people commuting into London (making it less "predominately working-class").

Now - perhaps some of the outer South-Eastern suburbs would be my answer: Bexleyheath, Erith, Slade Green, Welling, East Wickham.  A good clue (in all seriousness) is the presence of pie and mash (or jellied eel) shops: this foodstuff hasn't really caught on beyond working class Londoners, but is much beloved of them.

This traditional Cockney/London working class culture also exists in some places beyond the boundaries of Greater London, especially in those areas that Eastenders of natives of South-east London moved to, or were moved to, after WWII: eg Debden and along the Lea Valley on the border of Essex and Hertfordshire, Stevenage, north Kent along the Thames estuary, and in south Essex, Basildon, Tilbury, Canvey.

The nearest thing you would find in the inner city to this description would probably be Bermondsey, or those bits of the Isle of Dogs that haven't been gentrified, or Beckton, or North Woolwich. But almost by definition most of these places are more ethnically and socially mixed than the outer suburbs.

Answer 4

Ummm Islington?

Answer 5

There are no longer ,any white native Londoners
