Well lucky that i did not claim to be an expert just someone who knows the area and saw it change dramatically in the short space of 15 years
luckily a BBC documentary was recently made about this
you can watch it here:

The area has had an influx of
70,000 immigrants in the past 15 years. 73 per cent of the local population is now made up of ethnic minorities and Black British.
