Officials in rural pockets of England are reportedly seeking to make the British countryside less white, per a study by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
A study commissioned by Defra found that the British countryside risks becoming “irrelevant” in the U.K.’s increasingly multicultural society because the countryside is too much of a “white environment” enjoyed by the “white middle class,” as reported by The Daily Express.
Pubs were found to be especially problematic.
“Muslims from the Pakistani and Bangladeshi group said this [the presence of pubs] contributed to a feeling of being unwelcome,” the study reportedly read.
“We are all paying for national landscapes through our taxes, and yet sometimes on our visits it has felt as if National Parks are an exclusive, mainly white, mainly middle‑class club,” the report continued.
DEFRA can stick their plans to ‘diversify the countryside’ where the Sun doesn’t shine.
They should stick to supporting farmers and cleaning up rivers, and need to be purged of DEI and Cultural Marxist activists. pic.twitter.com/v2XBFLjlaY— David Kurten (@davidkurten) February 2, 2026
The study has inspired the councils that operate the country’s rural National Landscapes — formerly known as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) — to draw up plans to increase diversity.
“Many minority peoples have no connection to nature in the UK because their parents and their grandparents did not feel safe enough to take them or had other survival preoccupations,” the Malvern Hills National Landscape council reportedly wrote in its own proposal.
“While most white English users value the solitude and contemplative activities which the countryside affords, the tendency for ethnic minority people is to prefer social company (family, friends, schools),” the proposal continued.
The proposal further noted that it will aim to “develop strategies to reach people or communities with protected characteristics such as people without English as a first language.”
The Chilterns National Landscape Council is also taking action.
The council “has set out proposals that include community outreach schemes to attract more Muslims to the area, particularly from nearby Luton,” according to The Telegraph.
“More diverse staff will be recruited, marketing material will be produced featuring people visibly from ethnic minorities, and written in ‘community languages,'” the report continues.
The Chiltern National Landscape will launch an outreach programme in Luton and High Wycombe targeted at Muslims.
One factor stopping ethnic minorities visiting was said to be ‘anxiety over unleashed dogs’.More Mosques and less dogs, total Islamification seems to be the goal! pic.twitter.com/O4epV3Yzb7

The Nidderdale National Landscape wrote in its proposal that minorities have “concerns about how they will be received when visiting an unfamiliar place.”
And so to that end, the council intends to “develop more inclusive information to reflect more diverse cultural interpretation of the countryside.”
The Cranborne Chase National Landscape council, meanwhile, has vowed to “reach people or communities with protected characteristics such as people without English as a first language.”
And the Surrey Hills National Landscape council has concluded that “some demographics are still under-represented in our countryside.”
These efforts have attracted massive mockery and derision on social media.
Look:
Whites are the global minority. Our culture and countryside should be protected from islamification.

In other words: “the cities have been taken over, now take over the countryside!” This is a form of national suicide these people are engaged in

It’s fucking crazy that articles now are openly gloating about how the government has literal plans to ethnically cleanse the country and White people.

In a Britain littered with shit hole third world cities, the countryside is one of the last remaining refuges where aboriginal Brits can spend time and try to regain their sanity. Now the treasonous government wants to wreck that too.
Why?

Engineering diversity like it’s a quota is reverse racism. Britain’s identity, culture, and heritage are being treated as problems to fix. True fairness isn’t erasing history it’s preserving it while valuing everyone’s contribution honestly, not artificially forcing change.
