A Jewish community came into Britain after 1066, until their expulsion in 1290. Oliver Cromwell allowed their resettlement in 1656. Lombards, Hansa and other merchants came for the trade, and Gypsies arrived in the 16th century. The Muslim population in Britain dates back to the 18th century when Muslim sailors, known as lascars, serving on British merchant ships began settling in the port cities of Cardiff, Liverpool, Glasgow and London. The largest migration of Muslims communities began in the 1950s, coming mainly from South Asia and settling in inner city London, the industrial towns of the Midlands, and the textile towns of Lancashire, Yorkshire and Strathclyde. As of 2008 there are now approximately 1.6 million Muslims in Britain, making it the largest religious minority in Britain. The climate of tolerance also enabled communities fleeing persecution in Europe to settle in Britain as well as other groups attracted to Britain by the chance of economic security, often bringing new trades or coming to work in new industries. The legacy of the British Empire also attracted immigrants from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh in the 1960s to 1980s; they now make up the largest immigrant communities. Many came because of the prospects of work in the textile and other industries. This history of immigration to Britain has produced today’s uniquely diverse nation. There is now an estimated minority ethnic population of more than 4

million, 7.1% of the population. The Office for National Statistics projects that the minority ethnic population will almost double by 2020, because of its higher birth rate. Ethnic diversity has enriched British society; it is now home to communities from every comer of the globe. The different communities have helped build today’s vibrant Britain and contributed to its economic, social, democratic and cultural development. Prime Minister Tony Blair said, “We celebrate the diversity in our country, get strength from the cultures and the races that go to make up Britain today”. http://www.britainusa.com/sections/articles_show_ntl
