I know statistics are poorly understood and are misused. But facts matter

Between the 1991, 2001, 2011 and 2021 Census *every* ethnic group in the UK has become *less* geographically segregated and *all* groups, majority and minorities, are more likely to interact with people not like them

Particularly when you get to listen to Tom Petty followed by Gil Scott-Heron.

Very nice. We were in Edinburgh at the weekend and were surprised to find it was actually warm. (Briefly.)
