One in five babies born to foreign mother in UK
By Philip Johnston, Home Affairs Editor
One in five babies born in Britain last year was born to a woman from overseas, according to the first official analysis of the impact of migration on fertility.
Immigrant mothers are having far more children than their British counterparts - fuelling the biggest rise in population since the 1960s baby boom.
The highest birth rates were among Pakistani, Indian or Bangladeshi-born mothers, who gave birth to five per cent of all UK babies last year.
A further four per cent were born to mothers from EU countries outside Britain and Ireland, with a growing number from eastern Europe.
The Pakistani rate of 4.7 children per mother is almost three times higher than the British rate of 1.7.
- IT'S NOT IMMIGRATION; IT'S COLONIALIZATION.
- THE SUN WILL SOON SET ON BRITAIN ITSELF.
SOON, THEY WILL BE HIS MASTER AT HOME, TOO.
Mark Steyn's book America Alone spells this out in great detail (and with Steyn's usual humor and panache). And it is not just the UK. It is all of Europe. Meanwhile the Russians are vanishing demographically from the earth. Just think of it as Chechnya growing like a cancer and one day getting its hands on all those Russian nukes.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is you have read Steyn's book, but if not please consider this an enthusiastic recommendation.

ReplyDeleteExactly!
In a few years, the tide will turn in favor of this colonization. I'm not sure that the UK is able to stem the tide.
