We need more migrants because the ones we've already got are sitting on the dole.

it's slowly happening almost everywhere it seems, because white british people have far less kids.
look at the % of BME in school classes since around 2000
the numbers have at least doubled in Newcastle.
I think it was around 7% now it's around 20-30% if I remember right
Newcastle numbers may be boosted by it being the immigration capital of the north east
I bet a worrying amount of those children don't speak english as a first language and slow down the education for everything, school classes are already over crowded to the extent that peoples educations are suffering.
Most of the parents don't seem to speak english either so they get free english lessons if they want.
it's weird because in Switzerland all of the migrants seem to speak hoch Deutsch which I wouldn't have expected to be as common as english in the countries they come from. (seems mostly Turkish, Albanians, thai and some parts of africa where I go in Zurich kanton)
Checking the languages of turkey/albania on wikipedia english should be far more common for those countries.
maybe Switzerland forces them to be able to speak German and doesn't offer translators to the extend England does pandering to their needs.
What the **** are you talking about?
When pupils arrive at the school at the age of five, some have never seen a word of english before. Pupils are up to two years behind the national average for when they arrive.
Yasmine Dhillon, the head teacher, said: "Some of them have never seen the written word. At home the parents may not have any books, and when they come to us some of them only have words or phrases in English."
For the first year pupils are "immersed in English", after which most pupils have reached national standards.
The school also has translators on hand on parent evening, and is attempting to improve their standard of English. "The parents are aspirational, they want their children to go to university, to be doctors and highly skilled professionals."
The cost of educating a non-native speaker has been estimated at £30,000 a year because of the need for added classroom assistance. That compares to just £5,000 for a child who does have English as their first language.
Chris McGovern, chairman of the Campaign for Real English, said that non-English speaking immigrant children often brought "an excellent work-ethic into the classroom."
But he added: "It means a lot of teacher time has to be spent addressing language issues."

Being bred out of existence - The long game.
The longer term issue with this is that these muslim children will never catch up and thus have lower educational attainment by the time they're adults. What does that mean? Lower likelihood of employment, higher risk of criminality and resentment at wider society who won't accept them. Not a good cocktail mix.Why these parents don't speak english? took me like 3-6months to self learn basic German with the internet at a level where I can understand most of what is being said.
seems there is to much interpreters in this country so they likely don't bother to try and learn english or don't see it as that important when the government or local councils are happily to assist them every step of the way.

That's happening in Germany right now. Migrant birthrate is higher then real Germans, it's also an absurd number, like 52% or something. (I'm looking for the correct figures)

Percentages are meaningless when the ethnic group make up such a small percentage of the overall population.
For example every gray female rabbit could give birth, and only a third of black female rabbits. Percentage wise the grey ones seem to be doing better but if there's only 5 female grey rabbits for every 100 black ones it's irrelevant.
In the UK in 2016, the last ONS available white British live births outnumbered every other ethnicity combined by a factor of 2.5. 65% Vs 35% of everyone else combined, the next largest group was white other at about 12.5%. Note figures exclude figures where parent ethnicity is not stated.
Bred out of existence isn't possible at current rates, in fact it's the exact opposite.
indeed but London now has only 45% white British people so given that minorities tedn to group together on a local basis it certainly does happen.
It is however relatively easy to get leave to remain in the UK for very long periods of time.
When I worked in London years ago it was always comical to see that amount of people who had 'exceptional' leave to remain.
There was nothing 'exceptional' about it from what I could see.
It was so bad that the goverment decided to rename it disceretionary leave or humanitarian protection.

Oh absolutely areas will differ, the stats are an average nationally. But given the ratios it can only happen in a rather few select areas. For the vast majority of folk it's so small a percentage it barely registers
Ah, the Windrush generation. Never got citizenship, never bothered to try, yet years later the government is forced to apologise abjectly and hand out large amounts of money in compensation for daring to question the right to live here...
Most of those are on benefits though. Outbred by chavs.
Its not about breeding though its about rates of immigration when that far exceeds the birthrate then you see what you see in London. How long before the tipping point and they decide that the country they moved into doesn't represent them? What gives that the right to tell what they should and shouldn't do? When the native population is the minority who says their language and culture should be the dominant one?
The immigrant population is expanding elsewhere around here a non white face was a rare one several years its becoming much more common now.
I was responding to a post that claimed white British are being bred out, not anything do do with immigration figures. Facts are in 2016, 470k white British babies were born Vs around 20k Bangladesh and Pakistani each. There's no figures for middle Eastern as it's so insignificant it's bundled in with "others"
In 2016 there was 774,835 live births (ONS figures) and 28.2% of thoose live births were to women born outside the UK (218,503)
Net migration that year was 'down' to 248,000
So total 'new' population that year was 1,022,835 of which the component for UK born mothers was 556,332 so we are at a point where people coming into the UK and children born to non UK mothers will outnumber children born to UK mothers. How's integration going to work out with figures like that?
I posted the following earlier in the thread......
And don't forget the immigration figure is a net figure. A considerable amount of UK citizens emigrate every year so the actual demographic change in the UK is considerably higher then the 248,000 net migrants for that year.
The immigrants and mothers of thoose children not born of UK born mother obviously come from a diverse range of countries and cultures themselves.
None the less I suggest the UK establishment has allowed for an absolutely disastrous situation to develop from the point of view of successfully integrating new arrivals in a generation or two into a wider semi cohesive UK society. Especially considering the tendency of some of thoose new arrivals to cluster in groups in limited geographical areas of the country.
You've added immigration figures in to the argument which wasn't the argument I was refuting. It was simply that we aren't being bred out of existence, nothing more.
Your figures above show white births at 556k Vs population growth of 1.02m, more than half.
