Conservative Shadow Home Robert Jenrick has gotten himself into trouble with the BBC and other assorted organs of the left because he spoke the truth about an area of Birmingham called Handsworth,
“Robert Jenrick complained about visiting an area of Birmingham where he “didn’t see another white face” and said it was not the kind of country he wanted to live in. After highlighting the lack of white people, the shadow justice secretary said it was not about “the colour of your skin or your faith” and he wanted people to live alongside each other. However, he has been criticised by the area’s MP for suggesting he could tell whether Handsworth was “properly integrated” based on whether there were any white people in the area during a 90-minute period”
Jenrick is RIGHT and WRONG and I am going to explain why this is the case.
Handsworth has seen the indigenous WHITE population all but erased. Handsworth is “highly diverse” with 91.3% of residents identifying as Black, Asian, or Minority Ethnic, significantly higher than the city average of 51.4%. The largest ethnic groups include Indian (23.1%), Pakistani (25.1%), Bangladeshi (10.2%), Black African (7.8%), and Black Caribbean (8.2%).
The White population constitutes 8.7% of the ward’s residents.
So in a country that is 80% white, and in a city that is 48.6% White, Handsworth is 8.7% white. It therefore follows that you have only an 8% chance of seeing a white face if you visit it, as Jenrick did. So he is perfectly correct to point this out and the howls of outrage are from those who have joyfully seen this areas ethnically cleansed of white people. They should be ignored.
Back in 1961, Handsworth was 95% White. In 2025, it is 8% white.
Can’t we talk about this without being called “racist’‘? The answer is NO – they want to enlist our silence in our erasure. Well, not here!
Now let me explain where Jenrick is WRONG!
He says he wants people to live alongside each other. Why? I don’t see why we should all be living in multi ethnic communities. Jenrick doesn’t. He lives in a 17th Century mansion.
It is located in Hertfordshire. Can you guess what the demographic of his nearest town is? Yes, 97% White. In other words, he lives in a part of England which has barely changed in a 1000 years. But Handsworth and many other places are now unrecognisable after 60 years of mass migration.
Jenrick believes in the UK as a rainbow of ethnicities all integrated under the Union Jack. Experience suggests this is just a fairytale.
Handsworth is where this country is headed, it’s just got there early.
