Here is a little helping hand. The data I have seen on ethnicity and income is a bit dated but I can provide it as well if that helps

with the exception of the Indian ethnic group, people from an ethnic minority were more likely than White British people to live in the most deprived 10% of neighbourhoods in England

pakistani and Bangladeshi people were over 3 times more likely than White British people to live in the most deprived 10% of neighbourhoods in England

pakistani and Bangladeshi people were also over 3 times more likely than White British people to live in the most income-deprived neighbourhoods, and pakistani people were more than twice as likely as White British people to live in the most employment-deprived areas

Indian people were least likely to be living in both the most deprived 10% of neighbourhoods in England and the most employment-deprived neighbourhoods

White British people were least likely to be living in the most income-deprived neighbourhoods of England

You have missed the point and chosen different metrics so that you can ignore the reality of what I stated.

Originally posted by Stirlingsays No it isn't, it shows that it's white children at the bottom who are succeeding less at education. Fine, but you’re making a subtly different point there to win an argument Educational under performance is not exclusively caused by economic or social hardship and It’s therefore a bit of a stretch to say that because A then B. It’s less of a stretch with the other data, especially as your chart actually supports it - despite certain minorities being worse off than anyone else they still have better exam results than those above them, ie the white british. Your chart requires more assumptions to support it, the other data is far more fact based considering the question you’re trying to answer. Which was not ‘who performs worst in GCSE exams’ - note, no link to social or financial consideration as it’s not in the study. Having said all that what were the sample sizes. Could both be dross Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

I think you have gone on a ramble, sampling the beers again? I was non specific, you challenged the contention I provided the proof.....you continued your denial and choose your own metrics.....that's ok....I know the reasons your statistics are why they are. And I know the reasons why my statistics are how they are......In a sense arguing the toss with you playing 'my data is worse than your data' is kind of moot.

Originally posted by Midlands Eagle Jobs lost as a result of Brexit or those job losses conveniently blamed on Brexit? You claim that house prices have been stagnant as if that's a bad thing and sterling may be weaker but that helps exporters as it makes our prices more competitive Just for clarification, this isn’t actually strictly true. It’s getting into the weeds of trade economics a little bit, but the Marshall-Lerner identity only holds in the long run. In the short run, weak Sterling will almost always increase the size of the deficit (look into the J-curve for an explanation of why). In the long run, the theory goes, the J completes and export value goes up - ceteris paribus. If, however, Sterling has depreciated because of (amongst other things) the anticipation of higher barriers in the future, the trade deficit might always be unambiguously worse. Not digging you out but this is a mistake that I keep seeing go uncorrected, even in supposedly well-informed discussions.
