People were unhappy that Robertson started throwing accusations without considering Scottish demographics. According to them, racism isn’t to blame for the lack of “diversity” in the Miss Scotland photo.
Scotland’s Census 2011, the most recent official study of the country’s demographics, said that 84% of Scotland’s population reported their ethnicity as ‘White: Scottish’ and a further 8% as ‘White: Other British’. Together, minority ethnic groups and white non-British groups (which include ‘White: Irish’, ‘White: Polish’, ‘White: Gypsy/ Traveller’ and ‘White: Other White’) made up 8% of the total population.
The Asian population was the largest minority ethnic group (3% of the population or 141,000 people), while the African, Caribbean or Black groups made up 1% of the population.
