wikipedia lol, although I believe its from the 2011 census.

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_groups_in_the_United_Kingdom

British indian: 1.45 million

British Pakistani: 1.17 million

interestingly, other asian (dont know what this means) is numbered at: 860,000 ???

It makes good sense to me. Paks are more homogenous and would live together, whilst 'Indians' aren't as likely to clump together. You have Hindu areas and Sikh areas, and mixed areas and wherever Sikhs are there are damn sure to be some Paks.

 

From what I understand the concentration of Sikhs are in Gravesend, Southall, Wolves. Maybe some areas of B'ham but not sure. Goodmayes has a reasonable Sikh community but I'm sure there are as many Gujus and Paks there too?

Statistically Sikhs are just as likely to clump together as Pakistanis are http://www.ethnicity.ac.uk/medialibrary/briefingsupdated/more-segregation-or-more-mixing.pdf

There's always been more Indians than Pakistanis in the UK. You probably assume that all Asian Muslims in the UK are Pakistani, when lots are in fact Bengali or Guji Muslim

What about those Arabs and since England unlike America wasn't very smart about the refugee crisis that skewed their results as well on the Muslims there?

I'd take those stats with a big pinch of salt myself. I skimmed through that, hard to find any solid facts.

Measurement of residential clustering is difficult. Though a growing number of an ethnic group in one place is a bigger ‘cluster’, it does not mean any greater separation from others. For example, in the UK the Bangladeshi population has grown in size, leading to larger clusters of Bangladeshis across the country. At the same time there has been spreading out from the biggest Bangladeshi concentration in Tower Hamlets. The same is true of the Indian, Caribbean, Pakistani, and African groups, and of Muslims, Sikhs Buddhists, Christians and Hindus. So, there are bigger clusters and more mixing at the same time.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
