Let’s annoy the Substack algorithm, shall we? I like nothing better than a chance to kick back and I KNOW that all my articles challenging the rituals of Islam all do REALLY WELL here, despite the censorship. In fact, I *think* they cause me the problems here, So let’s follow the logic and ask the question – could the UK become an Islamic nation by the end of this century?
Historically and culturally, Islam has all but been absent throughout British history. Yes there have been muslims living in the UK throughout our history but in very insignificant numbers and without any real impact.
That has changed during my lifetime. The year I was born, 1960, it is estimated at being circa 75,000. Today it is estimated at over 4million. That’s a HUGE INCREASE and when you break it down it gets more worrying again.
London, the capital of the UK, has over 1,318,755 Muslims, representing 15% of the city’s population. That number is rising fast every year. London is a very expensive city and yet the muslim population is fast growing in it. How come? If we look at the Muslim population in the London borough of Newham, it is around 122,146, representing 34.8% of the borough’s total population of approximately 351,000. Remarkably, that is still not the highest Muslim population of a London Borough! That accolade is held by Tower Hamlets with 39.9%, and growing. At current rates of growth, London WILL become a majority Muslim city by 2084. What then? Perhaps we can expect the Adhan from Big Ben?
Of course, It’s not just London where we see this. Consider Birmingham. The Muslim population in England’s 2nd city is estimated at approximately 350,000–360,000, around 30% of the city’s population! So you can see the trajectory is very similar to London.
Elsewhere, a similar tide is running. Consider these stats.
Blackburn with Darwen: 35.0% (54,146 Muslims)
Luton: 32.9% (74,191 Muslims)
Bradford: 30.5% (166,846 Muslims)
Slough: 29.0% (45,910 Muslims)
Pendle: 26.0% (24,824 Muslims)
Oldham: 24.4% (59,031 Muslims)t.
Muslim political influence is also fast growing. Parliament currently contains 25 Muslim MPs out of 650 but to understand Islam’s influence, check out all those who “stand with Palestine”! There are approximately 9–12 Muslim mayors in England in 2025, combining confirmed directly elected and civic mayors. Sadiq Khan is the most notable, being London Mayor.
If demography is destiny, the UK looks set to change into a Muslim majority country before this century finishes. That should in turn finish the UK.
