This statistic shows the result of a question from the British Social Attitudes survey which asked 'would you describe yourself as very prejudiced/a little prejudiced against people of other races?' Over this 34-year period there was a net decrease in the share of respondents saying that they were, at least to some extent, prejudiced when it came to people of other races.
Would you describe yourself as very prejudiced/a little prejudiced against people of other races?
* The figures for 'prejudiced' are a combination of those who answered 'very prejudiced' (between 1 and 4 percent) and those who answered 'a little prejudiced'. Figures do not always sum to 100 due to 'don't know' and 'refused to answer' respondents.
** 2017 data taken from the NatCen Panel. Base varied between 1,035 in 1998 and 4,432 in 2003.
