London is not ‘55% non-white’

An image being shared on social media claims that London is “55% non-white”.

This is not true. At the last Census, in 2021, although London was the most ethnically diverse region, 53.8% identified as white. So the “non-white” total was closer to 46.2%. 

This 53.8% majority is made up of 36.8% who said they were “White: English, Welsh, Scottish, Northern Irish or British”, and 17% who made up the “White other” category.

Of that “White other” category, 14.7% said they were “White: Other White”, 1.8% said they were “White: Irish”, 0.4% said they were “White: Roma” and 0.1% said they were “White: Gypsy or Irish Traveller”.

The next largest single category was Asian, at 20.7% of the population.
