What do you think this country will be like in 100/200 yrs time?

[10ClarionSt]

I dread to think about it. Lots of immigrants have a totally different approach to life with their attitude to religion, work, families, culture etc. They contrast so differently from European ways but the way things are going, with Westerners afraid to challenge anything because of political correctness, I can see this country being poverty racked and becoming like an Asian or African country. A complete reversal of when Britain conquered those areas in the past, this country will end up worse than that.

To be honest, I'm glad I'll be out of it.

Hard to say - there wasn't any benefits system 100 years ago, but there were still a lot of foreign nationals (pro rata) in the UK at the turn of the last century. Britain's colonisation (not exactly conquering) of the countries you mentioned wasn't anything to be proud of, though - we rode roughshod over their existing cultures.

I dont know what it will be like but i dont think it will be good at all.My brother has a theory it will be like The Third World.

You're frightened of foreigners who are truly foreign are you?

They'll get so powerful that they'll change all the laws and all the justice system, all the courts will be their courts, maybe only their language will be allowed in government and the courts, they'll, at the very least, change English forever....

You weren't around before the Normans turned up , were you? All the above happened from 1066. Whether you think that the result was a disaster, is a matter for you.

Now explain how a minority of immigrants will become a majority, how they will gain power without, and why the bulk of them won't continue to accept the present system.

and hearing most of today's "feral " youths the language will be a series of grunts and hand gestures,

[percypineapple]

Big worry for us born and bred white brits, but, things change slowly as time passes, and a multicultural Britian is probably going to happen, and looking forward 200 years, there will probably be no pure races, mixed marriages of black/white/asian etc are happening all around us, so eventually everyone will be a mix of black/white/asian. Is that a bad thing?? If it brings peace to the world, then bring it on.

"Doom, we are all doomed" - especially as dad's army is on TV (again for the nteenth time)..

[DTCwordfan]

Pray what is different from the view that people 200 years ago had, or even 400 years ago? - this country has always had immigrants coming in, so it's about time folk got used to managing change.

"Doom; doomed, we are doomed."

And immigrants tend to have a higher birth rate than the resident population, lesson 1 in any Demographics course.....

[hc4361]

It's only a few years ago that 'we' British considered ourselves to be totally different to the Europeans or 'continentals' as we quaintly called them and he you are lumping us as one big happy family.

You think a miracle is going to happen.
You believe that all the immigrants and their descendants - the Africans, Arabs, Indians, Pakistanis, Romanian, Polish, Ukrainian, Chinese, West Indians with all their different religions - Jews, Sikh, Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Christian, not forgetting the atheists, Jehovah Witness, Christian Scientists, the myriad of denominations and the many other races, creeds and religions that choose to live in the UK are going to unite and adopt one religion or way of life in order to dominate the native Brit and take control of the UK?

The different factions of the same religions can't agree on how things should be done so I can't see that happening in a million years.

Migrants follow money. It won't be long before China is the choice destination. That is the country with the best prospects at the moment.

[FredPuli43]

Has anybody done the maths that show that, at its 'worst' a higher birth rate in any immigrant community will mean that they outnumber the rest of us in a given number of years?
And does not history show that the newcomers' birth rate declines with the generations?

[ukanonymous]

So they doubled in 10 years but this could probably decrease with birth-rate to 7 years. There fore 2042 the UK will be an Islamic State. That’s not a scare tactic that is just fact. The only way to stop it is to increase the birth-rate of the non muslims but that would lead to over population very quickly and would be an even worse outcome.


The problem is in these situations you do not realise it is a problem until it is actually too late. It is similar to jar of bacteria that starts with just 1 bacteria and doubles every minute. Within an hour the jar is full. Yet it is only in the last minute that the jar is half full and there is a problem here.

Then the minute after that you need 2 jars, Then 4. By the time Islam is dominant in the UK it wont be long until we go through hell of over population in the world. This could have some very dire repercussions such as ethnic cleansing etc. I shudder at the thought really.

It is a bleak out come for me as I am Atheist 150%. All we can do is pray for some scientific discovery which is irrefutable evidence that religion is nothing more than an elaborate fairy-tale used for money and power through fear.

But even then they will probably delude themselves into believing in some sort of god. They have proof after all. A Book.
