MUSLIMS in some parts of Britain are isolated and cut off from the rest of society, according to a shocking new government report.

It says thousands of Muslims are completely cut-off, living in enclaves with their own housing estates, schools and television channels and rarely leaving their own neighbourhoods.

The major review by government integration tsar Dame Louise Casey also found that in one school up to nine in ten children believed Britain is a predominantly Asian country.

However figures from the 2011 Census put the actual proportion of Muslims in England and Wales at under five per cent, while Christians account for nearly 60 per cent.

The new review says the Muslim enclaves are concentrated in northern areas such as Bradford, Dewsbury and Blackburn, according to a report in The Sunday Times.

The newspaper quotes sources saying the report will send "shock waves" through the system by attacking the government, and particularly the Home Office, for failing to manage the consequences of mass migration and promote integration.

It said the report will criticise the police for "pandering" to ethnic minorities, with some institutions so politically correct that they are playing into the hands of the far right.

Dame Louise reportedly had her review delayed by the Home Office because of concerns over its critical tone.

One insider said it was going to prove "quite hard reading for some people", according to the Sunday Times.

A spokesman for the Department for Communities and Local Government said it would be unable to comment on the report before it is published tomorrow.

-We previously reported that the Casey Review said that some segregated Muslims believe Britain is 75 per cent Islamic. This was incorrect. In fact the review cited a survey of pupils in one largely Asian school who thought 50-90 per cent of the population of Britain were Asian. We apologise for the error.
