White families on the country's poorest estates believe they have been 'betrayed' and 'abandoned' by politicians who favour newly-arrived immigrants, a Government report acknowledged today.
It found that people on council estates think they always come second to immigrants for housing and benefits.
Many feel they have been shoved aside by politicians who use political correctness and allegations of racism to stifle honest discussion, it said.
The report for the Department of Communities and Local Government drew an admission from Communities Secretary Hazel Blears that white working class people 'sometimes just don't feel anyone is listening or speaking up for them.'
She said people should be allowed to talk about their worries 'without fear of being branded a racist.'
The findings, produced by Mrs Blear's 'National Community Forum', appear another step on Labour's road away from multiculturalism, the left-wing doctrine that dominated ministerial thinking until the 2005 London July bombings.
Under multiculturalism, ethnic minority groups are encouraged to develop their own identity while critics say values associated with white groups are dismissed as racist.
Today's report was based on interviews with 43 people on largely-white housing estates in Birmingham, Runcorn, Milton Keynes and Thetford in Norfolk.
It found that 'by far the most frequent context for referring to ethnic minorities is that of perceived competition for resources - typically housing, but also employment, benefits, territory and culture.'
On the Milton Keynes estate, 'feelings of anxiety around housing were so acute that respondents claimed they had voted against the regeneration of the estate, which meant pulling down all breeze block houses and rebuilding them with new and better materials, because they feared that their necessary displacement during building work would result in them losing their places on the estate to immigrants.'

Look who just woke up......
They are just figuring this out NOW?!???
Next thing you know, the Brits will demand equal treatment, freedom of assembly, RKBA...
They should move here where Uncle Sugar doesn’t take care of you, you’re expected to take care of yourself (at least for another 19 days).
Ding Ding Ding
That was the alarm bell of whites in Britain who finally realize that they are being crapped on and taken over.
Lets hope they are fed up enough to speak out and get over the charge of “racist”. I’m over that myself. I could give a rat’s behind if someone thinks I’m a racist.
Fat chance, these are native parasites on the dole.
The British government learned well from California. If they continue this, industry will move out and so will the money. It will become a ghetto.
I agree they don’t want equal treatment. They want equal handouts.
Allahu Akbar!
Unless the people of the UK seize control of their nation from the libs they’re doomed. Simple as that.
The Brit lower classes will eventually fully realize that, and that Labour intends to supplant them.
No shi’ite!
What exactly is a ‘council estate’? Is that government housing?
Those are the same people who are on welfare here (”council estates” in GB) who expect everything to be given to them.
Well, DUH! Why th’ hell ya’ think I’m learning Spanish, changing my name, and swimming north on my next vacation - across the Rio Grande!
> What exactly is a council estate? Is that government housing?
Yeah. Run by Local Government. Like a “Housing Project”.
