You asked

I would like to make an FOI request on the white male population of England and Wales from 2011 onwards.

We said

Thank you for your freedom of information request. 

Ethnic Group information is available from the census. The associated download provides the number of white males in England and Wales for both the 2011 and 2021 censuses. This data has been downloaded from nomis. Nomis is a service run on behalf of the ONS by the university of Durham. Ethnicity is only collected from Census data, therefore we can only provide data from 2011 and 2021. 

The create a custom data set tool enables users to choose and change the area type, coverage and variables for Census 2021 data.
