1. All very interesting...

and, on the whole, reassuring; suggesting that attitudes, if just as confused as they've always been, at least haven't got notably worse.
Of course, there's always some tendency to say what you think is the acceptable thing; few people will actually want to admit that they're very prejudiced against other races, even when they are!

What is interesting is that on the one hand, over half of the people surveyed said that SOME areas of Britain are no longer the same due to immigration; but only a small minority said that this was true of THEIR area. This may reflect the particular places where the respondents lived; but I suspect that some of it is due to their being influenced by the hate-media about Britain in general, while having actual knowledge of their own area.
