Muhammad is No 2 in boy's names

“12 variations on the name some we don’t notice the real numbers.”

“You know why they all have the same name? It’s so they can get one driving licence and share it around.”

“They’ve all got the same name so they can claim mistaken identity when the police come arrest them.”

FFS ! Hasn’t this been done to death!

Overall, Muslims account for 3 per cent of the British population, about 1.5 million people. However, the Muslim birthrate is roughly three times higher than the non Muslim one.

This what CD based his predictions on and he was roundly pilloried. Seems the rate hasn't changed in the last 20 years. So much for that theory of birth rates dropping to the norm.

Time for an apology Greg, SASguru et al?

How about "norm" for the indigenous population?

CD was talking about the Asian birthrate not the Muslim one, and making ludicrous projections and I am not going down this path again this week. Hard to believe though it might be, I have a living to earn.

According to this, Italy is 1.22...

Yes in Italy they're adept at taking it up the gary.

ludicrous projections

I think the fat cat is pointing out that those projections are based on sustained eveidence. Evidence you debunked with some Canadian figures showing a rapid drop off in birth rates there.

20 years is a generation. Try reading the arguments again.

Oh sorry, I hadn't realised the Canadian evidence was over a sustained period of generations not years.
