More than half of black children in the UK are now growing up in poverty, a new analysis of official data has revealed.(Snip)But there was a wide variation among ethnic groups. The Labour research covered nine categories and it said Bangladeshi children are the poorest, with 61% of them living in a poor household. The figures for the other groups were: Pakistani children (55%); black African or Caribbean or black British (53%); other ethnicity (51%); other Asian (50%); mixed ethnicity (32%); Indian (27%); white (26%); and Chinese (12%). There are 2.9 million white children living in poverty, making them by far the largest ethnic cohort,

Has importing a bunch of poor people benefitted Britain in some way?

Does that include all of the African 'freedom seekers' who have no business being there to begin with?

Being Bangladeshi and poor in England is better than being in Bangladesh. Period.

My pastor always said that there is no shame in being poor. The shame comes with staying that way.

Whites don't relocate to the UK to take advantage of generous social welfare programs. When non-Whites do, it's a systemic racism crisis. Duh.

Now that they are out of the EU, why don't they do something about turning off the spigot for those immigrants? Maybe even repatriate them back to the EU from whence they came. I agree that the headline here is absolutely idiotic.
Wouldn't the correct term for those Pakis be Muslim? After all, isn't that one of the reasons the whole civil war for independence from the UK happened so long ago? Muslims wanting their own homeland was a part of the deal that Mountbatten brokered while negotiating the whole independence move back then. Indians, Caribbean residents would definitely be insulted if you labeled them black. They prefer to be referred to by their national heritage, not their skin color. That is a liberal construct.

Their black parents need to get a second job to ensure that their children are fed, or, as is the case most of the time, a first job.
Anybody who feeds squirrels and birds in their yard know how it works.

Another result of the UK allowing masses of third world peoples into the UK in accordance with runaway immigration schemes designed to achieve diversity!

IN FACT I will say...Take EVERY cracker out of the US, and fill 'er up with these black chillins and their parents, and put the crackers where you got the blacks, then come back and look in 20 years. I dare say you will find a completer reversal. The US will look like the place where they were brought from, and the place where the crackers were sent, will be well on its way to being just like the US was previously.

Instead of looking to reverse "structural racism," as they are, why not stop importing people who would be poor regardless of where they are in the world, and then supporting them on welfare to the detriment of everyone else?
