In the Telegraph, Matthew Goodwin warns that mass immigration is reshaping Britain beyond recognition, with white Britons set to become a minority by 2063. Here’s an excerpt:
Unless things change, and change fast, the population of the UK will be permanently transformed by mass immigration. White Britons will become a minority by the year 2063. The foreign-born and their immediate descendants will become a majority by 2079. And nearly one in four people in the UK will be following Islam by the year 2100; this figure would rise to around one in three among under-40s.
Many people struggle to make sense of the pace and scale of these changes. They ask how a nation can be transformed this fast without the consent of the governed.
But, last week, brand new data from the Office for National Statistics has made it abundantly clear that these trends are already well underway.
The findings are indeed shocking: more than one in three babies that were born in England and Wales last year have mothers who were not born in the UK; this rises to more than 40% for babies in England, a record high and up by nearly 10-points in less than a decade. …
This issue goes to the heart of our democracy: we didn’t vote for this. We have a political system and a ruling class that is no longer responsive to an electorate that has, for much of the last thirty years, been consistent in asking for less immigration and slower demographic change. …
Mass immigration also matters, secondly, for a more profound reason: it changes how we talk and think about things like Britishness and Englishness. With the foreign-born and their descendants now forecast to become a majority on these islands by the year 2079, the country will now be reshaped around a population that has a much “thinner” sense of national identity. …
These challenges will be compounded by the fact that the foreign-born now often hail not from Europe but radically different, if not incompatible cultures, from Pakistan and Afghanistan to Iraq.
The more babies who are born in the UK to mothers and fathers from such backgrounds, the more likely it is that the norms, traditions, religions and ways of life from these nations will be transplanted to England and Wales. …
As things stand, many of our leaders would rather cross their fingers and hope that this radical experiment with mass uncontrolled immigration works out.
But there are good reasons to think it will not, and those reasons are becoming increasingly visible by the day.

Seems to be working exactly as planned
I think it’s too late to do anything about it it.
As a people we need to make sure the perpetrators of this catastrophe pay dearly, and not just electorally, but physically for this disaster they have brought on us.
Not too late.
No, but I cannot see resolution without conflict now. The longer it rolls on the more bloody the conflict will be
The only hope is that exposure to what’s left of British values and culture will lead to 3rd and 4th generation Muslims becoming more moderate than their parents. Obviously for there to be any hope of this happening there needs to be a radical change in the elites view of integration to something similar to the Danish model. There should be a limit on the percentage of people from any non European group who can live in a given area, non Christian faith schools need to be banned including out of school hours Islamic instruction, Imams need to be much more closely monitored regarding the content of their sermons and all children should be taught that beliefs should only be respected if they’re worthy of respect.
I’m not sure that even Farage is brave enough or realises the scale of the problem enough to do these things.
There is no such thing as a “Moderate Muslim”.
There are only Muslims, who use different methods, different types of jihad, to achieve the same ends: helping to establish The Global Caliphate, and earning their ticket to the Paradise Brothel with 72 Virgins and “Boys like Pearls”, by offing an infidel, any way they can. It is a religious requirement of Islam, as the only way to absolutely guarantee your entry ticket.
It’s much worse than that really.
We have a political system that first made it socially unacceptable and supposedly motally reprehensible to speak out against the policies of the ruling class. And now it’s going further and criminalising it.
So its not that they’re not “responsive”. They’re responsive alright, with a totalitarian clampdown which makes avoiding this disaster even harder.
Many areas are already changed forever. It’s too late. A civil war, or race war, is inevitable.
It’s never too late, as the great African President Jomo Kenyatta, “Father of the Kenyan Nation”, demonstrated… when he famously declared:
“THERE ARE TOO MANY TICKS ON THE LION’S BELLY!”
…just before he KICKED all the Indian Subcontinental immigrants OUT OF KENYA in 1972.
And nobody called him “Racist” for taking drastic action to protect his own Ethnic African people from being taken over and treated like second-class citizens in their own land. He said they didn’t get rid of the British only to be trampled underfoot by the Indians & Pakistanis! (Ireland take note…)
His courageous example was soon followed by Tanzania & Uganda.
Unfortunately for the West, instead of returning to their ancestral homelands in the Indian Subcontinent to build it into greatness, they all swarmed into the UK and the US.
I think you’re referring to Idi Amin in Uganda. I’m not sure Indians were kicked out of Kenya and Tanzania.
No, I was referring to President Jomo Kenyatta of Kenya, as I said plainly.
He boldly led the way, kicking the Indian Subcontinentals out of Kenya, and was soon followed by Tanzania & Uganda, as I said.
Indian Subcontinentals were KICKED OUT OF THREE AFRICAN COUNTRIES for riding roughshod over the Indigenous Africans and taking over everything. You can see they are doing the same in the West.
You must be very young, because they don’t teach that in schools.
A race war is highly unlikely. Far too many people are so woke they’ll just lie down and let Muslims dictate more and more rules that everyone has to follow.
They are cities which could easily be isolated with a wall – it worked well in Berlin to keep people in.
I like your thinking. If Israel can isolate, all be it imperfectly, 2 million people in Gaza we should be able to isolate parts of Birmingham, Leicester, Rochdale etc.
Let them return to build THEIR OWN CITIES in THEIR OWN ANCESTRAL HOMELANDS.
What else is there to say about this topic that hasn’t been said a thousand times already? Therefore, another article, which isn’t paywalled;
”When future historians look back at Keir Starmer’s Labour government, they may view it as the administration that dismantled centuries of British identity, culture, and way of life. The greatest crisis of Starmer’s first year in office was his catastrophic failure to control unchecked mass migration.
During last year’s election campaign, there were no signs of what was coming. In July 2024, Starmer promised the moon to win power. He pledged to “crush the gangs” operating smuggling routes across the Channel, deploy a new border‑security command with hundreds of staff, and process migrant claims “quickly, firmly and fairly.” But those promises remained empty words, no action followed.
Instead, Labour effectively turned Britain into a de facto open‑border state, a policy voters never endorsed.
Starmer continues to repeat his promise to “crush the gangs,” but as local border chiefs admit, his strategy is failing. In fact, he’s removed deterrents, offering hotels and welfare payments to migrants. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of undocumented individuals continue to live and work freely in Britain.
The transformation is visible everywhere, not only in struggling cities like London, Birmingham and Leicester but also in small towns, traditional market villages, even tiny fishing communities on the coast.
Millions of native Britons now report feeling like strangers in their own country.”

Once again, you’ve hit the nail on the head. When I go to sing Evensong in my local cathedral, I walk past a previously unoccupied office block, now used to house immigrants. The residents lounge around in the environs, chatting away on their mobiles with never a word of English spoken, or stroll around with babies in nice buggies. The town of my birth feels so different now. The buildings and road signs are largely unchanged, but there’s something intangibly foreign in the air. (And no, I don’t only mean the stench of cannabis.)
Yes, we know this, but it’s vitally important to keep saying it, because so many people are blissfully unaware, especially if they don’t live in the big cities. It made me think of the news last month about broadcaster Selina Scott being mugged on Oxford Street in London, and how shocked she was, after coming to London from her peaceful 200-acre farm up north for a pleasant day out with shopping and museums, only to be attacked and mugged by a foreign gang. She blamed the police, instead of the politicians, for not being on the spot to defend her from the villains. When in doubt, always blame The National Scapegoat (police), as everyone does.
But one public commenter asked a crucial question, wondering where Elites like Selina and the Champagne Socialists are planning to go after deliberately destroying their own Ancestral Homeland? People talk about “Gated Communities”, but they will not be safe from the Invading Hordes. As for being safe on their large country estates, here’s what is happening in the pristine Lake District and on farms everywhere:
Illegal campers abandon tents and rubbish across Lake District beauty spot
Fly-tipping forces landowners to turn farms into ‘forts’ – BBC News
So where are The Elites planning to live, while the rest of us Plebs are struggling like contestants in The Hunger Games?
Another public commenter had this important information for Selina Scott:
“The Conservatives cut 20,000 Police Officers and 23,000 support staff, cut numbers of PCSOs from 16,000 to 8000, cut Special Constables by two-thirds and closed 650 Police Stations. They also cut mental health services and the probation service, so the Police have more work covering those as well. It’s no surprise they’re struggling to deal with crime.
National debt increased from 65% of GDP in 2010 to 85% in 2019, so austerity also failed in its stated aim.”
a rise in the number of muslims and the rise in woke trans-genderism. What can go wrong?
The solution is to stop being so welcoming. Stop the free housing, money, health care… stop the two tier lawmaking ie make Halal illegal as it should be. Ban the burka as some Islamic countries do… start deportations, of criminals, of illegal immigrants, start priortising British citizens. Sweden is doing a great job in rolling back on the mistake it’s made, not too late for us to start doing the same.
Britain will be like Lebanon.
Lebanon used to be quite a pleasant place. An early example of multiculturalism.
While things are going well, it’s easy to maintain peace.
Once things start going bad, not so much. Society splinters along ethnic and religious lines. Resentment builds.
Yes, didn’t bin laden say America has all the money, we have all the time or something along those lines. They don’t have to fight yet, they just have to increase numbers until they dominate
Lebanon— a prosperous Christian land that was destroyed by PALESTINIAN MUSLIM IMMIGRANTS, who also tried to destroy prosperous Jordan and its monarchy.
That’s why no Muslim countries want Palestinian Muslim immigrants.
If you’ve got a spare 15mins, listen to this. An ex-manager of a migrant hotel spills the beans. He even admits he was a Lefty socialist before he started the job but has since done a total U-turn due to his experiences.

I speak to a man who used to manage a Serco migrant hotel in Manchester. Listen to this!”

More and more people are waking up, or maybe a lot now want to stop the boats because it’s Liebour policy whereas 18 months ago they were vehemently opposed to the idea and the Rwanda scheme because it was Tory policy. Obviously many of them have got a lot more waking up to do regarding the dangers posed by Islam and the millions of Muslims with British citizenship. What to do about these people is far more complex than just stopping new arrivals.
This is too pessimistic as it assumes there will be no counter reaction from the local population.
It will prove to have been more important to warn of the timing when the proportion of fighting age boys and men are Muslim exceeds a crucial level that I suspect is below 50% for democracy and individual liberty will, at that point, vanish along with the idea of a governing majority and mother of all parliaments and all that enlightenment stuff.
When will a real leader emerge, one that tells the unpalatble truth to the British.
One that says we are broke, if the IMF comes in thats the end of the Gravy train and they will run the Country, and so choices must be made. Welfare will only be made to the real disabled, and to those who lose their jobs for the first 6months of unemployment. Everyone else MUST work, that will get the Country back on its feet.
Migrants will be deported, and there will be camps set up for ilegals prior to deportation. Benfefits will not be available, schooling will not be available and minimal health care for them.
Green subsidies will stop, those companied must prove it is cheaper, instead open up the oil fields, gas fields and frack etc.
Reduce income tax so that the working people keep more of their own money which they will use to raise their families, buy a home, and of course spend.
Reduce the size of the Public sector. stop the gold plated Pension scheme for new entrants.
Open the NHS up to private competition, get rid of all DEI placements.
Set a precedent, one court the English court, Sharia Courts etc are not legal in this country. Leave the ECHR, make the Justice system blind once more.
Legal migration must be on the basis that anyone coming here will have to pass certain tests including a financial minimum which means they can support themselves and their families, and that they have a Private health care plan and have organised private education for their children.
Reduce Corporation tax and business taxes, encourage the growth of the private sector, free up the banking sector from the onerous MIFID etc regs which prevent growth.
That’s it for now. People need to be told the truth, they need to be given a vision but more importantly they need to be explained how that vision will be reached. There is no easy answer, the Country needs to get back to work, to stop taking”free stuff” without then paying for others to have”freestuff”. We need to stop being an attractive retirement and sex capital for the worlds migrant young men, and we need for people to believe in their Country and to make it something to be proud of once more.
None of those in power or in the Cons, Lib dem etc Party’s will do this, they want power for the sake of it, and they simply do not know or have the guts to do the difficult things.
Matt Goodwin says “Our Political Class refuse to confront it”. ——It is actually worse than that. They are facilitating it. They are Global Government People and they do not care where all the people of the world live as they want to govern us all anyway. Infact it helps the global government agenda if we all do not feel like citizens of a Nation, and instead feel like citizens of the world.
See the UN document fron 2003 entitled Replacement Migration (yes really) which planned for the Yookay to have a million migrants to cope with an ageing society. Starmer is in the globalist Trilateral Commission which plans decades in advance for mass migration, obliteration of borders etc to usher in global government. We are heading into dark times because civil war is now baked in according to David Betz.
A potential solution is to pursue local authority with a vengeance.
Want to move to Essex? Pre-approval required by the County of Essex – can be denied for any reason including bad character.
Your leafy corner of outer north London surrounded by diversity that is steadily encroaching? Secede with a straight 51% vote, either join Essex if they’ll have you or form a new county.
English person wanting to move to Wales – sorry, not without passing a Welsh language test.
No need to do it at the county level – a few thousand people are enough to pool resources to pay for bin collection etc., London for example is far too big and at a minimum should be split into its constituent Boroughs.
This will lead to the fragmentation of the country, but will preserve havens of England, Wales and Scotland.
There would be Muslim enclaves dotted throughout the country, but without any benefits or services provided by the rest of us they’d soon collapse and there would be no incentive for them to remain here.
Christopher Priest’s dystopian novel about a UK civil war – Fugue for a Darkening Island – seems to becoming the most likely scenario for our wretched country
