Knutsford seems to be of a similar ilk.  

JBR, I don't recall ever seeing a non-white person til the late 60s in Dundee.  I remember it was when an Asian family took over a local shop.   Moved to Doncaster a few years later, and at first we lived in a cheap area, our neighbours included Indians, West Indians and Pakistanis.  The area now is full of Eastern Europeans.  Then we bought a house in a pit village, exclusively white! 

We moved to a suburb where there were other incomers, and good schools.  There were a few Asian families, one who'd made lots of money on the markets, and others who worked at the hospital.  Their kids were bright!

Good old Alexa, I've spend a couple of hours listening to Cole Porter, George Gershwin and Rogers & Hammerstein songs.  In the 60s we had some great music and some will never be forgotten, but there was something special about these old songs.

No, I disagree.
It would serve them better if they continued to walk into each other, hopefully banging their heads together and knocking a bit of sense into themselves.

The pub was packed on Saturday night
Ethel and Maggie pole dancing, what a sight
The pole was greased with thick beef dripping
It stank something horrid, and the pair kept slipping
Their green wooly drawers gave everyone a fright !

Reverend Brown was new to the church

Which places are almost all white British ?
 

Quite.  Plus, of course, life expectancy has risen which has created its own problems.

What was the UK population in 1947 when NHS was born, 40 million  ?   Now we don't exactly know how many people the NHS is trying to cope with. 

I see that the Miriam Webster online dictionary states that 

QuoteThe meaning of AYATOLLAH is a .... leader among Shiite Muslims

With that in mind, perhaps we ought to rename the position of PM as Ayatollah since their job seems to lead shite politicians.😬
