The People |
| London is renowned for its multi-cultural society, so the average Londoner is a tolerant and open-minded character. Although predominantly white and Anglo-Saxon, more than a quarter of its population is from an alternative ethnic background, making up half of the UK’s total ethnic minorities. This gives London the largest non-white population of any European city and is an important part of its cosmopolitan feel. Over 250 languages are spoken in the city. | |
|
Weather |
| The weather is not
a primary reason for going anywhere in the UK although in general London
does tend to be a little warmer than the rest of the country.
June and September
enjoys the best of the summer weather, and bare in mind it can get very
damp and cold during the winter, especially in January and February. |
