AnnotationThis article gives a brief history of immigration into the UK this century, and describes the main characteristics of the different ethnic minority populations living in Britain today. Using data from the 1991 Census - the first to include a question on ethnic group - this article covers the demographic background and main features of Britain's present-day ethnic minority populations and provides an introduction to the wealth of analyses which have followed the release of ethnicity data from the 1991 Census - in particular the Office for National Statistics' (ONS) four-volume `Ethnicity in the 1991 Census'.
