      A thick paddy.

      But back to my rant. If we compared the makeup of the UK at the beginning of the 1970s to now, based on people/generations who were 'British' then, what would the make up of those families be now versus 'imports'. What has been natural growth, versus 40 years of imports.

        No.

        But by the same token, allowing anybody and everybody here is not right either.

          I reckon stripping MF from his British Citizenship and kicking his fat arse to Nigeria where he belongs would be equivalent of removing around 100 foreigners, at least by weight.

              If you go back one, to those who are 2nd generation how many 3rd generation kids do they have etc.

              So based on immigration, what is the proportion of

              2nd
              3rd
              4th
              5th

              ..
              ..
              ..
              Picts
              Saxons etc

              Just wondering what the true level is if you go 1-3, >3
