This week, the ONS published data on births during 2025. According to their data, for the first time over 40 per cent of children born in England and Wales had at least one foreign-born parent. This rate has risen from 34 per cent in 2021, pre-Boriswave. As recently as 2008 children of foreign parents were only 30 per cent of the population and in 1998, before the ‘Blairwave’, they represented fewer than 20 per cent of births.
Perhaps this means that new arrivals are marrying native Brits? Mixed births have crept up, from 4 per cent in 2007 to 7 per cent in 2025. Significant increases have been recorded in Bangladeshi, Indian, Pakistani, ‘Other Asian’ and Black African births. Meanwhile only 53 per cent of births last year were White British babies (down from 64 per cent in 2007).
With annual immigration remaining above 800,000, and a quarter of a million Brits emigrating each year, this data points inexorably to the White British becoming a minority within a matter of decades. Indeed, with these birth rate trends, even if we were to close the borders, ending all immigration and emigration, White British would still become a demographic minority, albeit at a slower rate.
Often we have been told that this doesn’t matter, that it is somehow dubious or ‘racist’ to care about native Brits being replaced, or even to suggest that migrants who live here are in any way different from the native population. If everyone just ‘integrates’ and abides by ‘British Values’, all will be well.
