- British Chinese, including British-born Chinese (often informally referred to as BBC), are people of Chinese ancestry who were born in or have migrated to the United Kingdom. They are part of the Chinese diaspora, or overseas Chinese. The British Chinese community is thought to be the oldest Chinese community in Western Europe, if not the oldest in Europe, with the first Chinese coming from the ports of Tianjin and Shanghai in the early 19th century. Today, many Chinese families and communities have been in Britain for several generations. These communities have an active ethnic life with many activities and support networks for members, but have also integrated into the British community at large. Compared to most ethnic minorities in the UK, the Chinese tend to be more widespread and decentralised, with a record of high academic achievement, and have one of the highest inter-ethnic marriage rates in the country. Since the relatively elevated immigration of the 1960s, the Chinese community has made rapid socio-economic advancement in Britain over the course of one generation, although there still exists an occupational segregation of the Chinese in the labour market, where there exists a valuable source of qualified Chinese labour currently engaged in the ethnic niche, particularly the Chinese catering industry, which it has been suggested could be better utilized in the wider labour market. Immigrants have typically worked in the catering, hotel and laundry industries. The UK is home to Europe's largest Chinese community. While anti-Chinese sentiment on the part of the "white" majority host community has abated since the 1970s, segments of the UK press still frequently resort to stereotypical depictions of Chinese in their coverage of news events concerning China or Chinese in Britain. Most of the British Chinese are people or are descended from people who were themselves overseas Chinese when they came to the United Kingdom. The majority are from former British colonies, such as Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and also other countries such as Vietnam. People from mainland China and Taiwan and their descendants constitute a relatively minor proportion of the British Chinese community. There are Chinese communities in many major cities including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle, Sheffield, Belfast and Aberdeen. The Chinese community is the fastest growing non-European ethnic group in the UK (it is also the second fastest growing Overseas Chinese community), with 11.2% annual growth adding approximately 120,000 to the 2001 estimate of 230,000 by 2005 (in 2006 there were at least 400,000 British Chinese people). More than 90% of this growth was contributed by net migration. The majority of Chinese immigrants have not traditionally integrated into mainstream society, because they have not planned on staying in the country, and, of linguistic barriers. However, as the population has expanded, descendants of the original immigrants have begun to bridge the gap between Chinese and British culture.
- Britanniankiinalaiset ovat kiinalaisia ihmisiä, jotka ovat joko syntyneet Yhdistyneessä kuningaskunnassa tai muuttaneet sinne. He ovat osa ulkomailla asuvia kiinalaisia. Britanniankiinalaiset ovat Euroopan vanhin kiinalaisten siirtolaisyhteisö. Ensimmäiset kiinalaiset saapuivat Isoon-Britanniaan 1800-luvulla. Britanniankiinalaisia on yhteensä 247 403. Uskonnoltaan he ovat pääosin buddhalaisia ja kristittyjä. Äidinkielenään he puhuvat mandariinikiinaa, hakka-kiinaa, kantoninkiinaa ja englantia. Suurin osa heistä on asettunut suurin kaupunkeihin kuten Lontooseen, Manchesteriin, Liverpooliin ja Glasgow'hun.
