Is there 50 million English here now? I would doubt it.

A lot have left/are leaving.

A lot of "English" are like me, made up of all sorts really. (I still consider myself English though, seeing as I was born here as were my parents). One of my grandparents even was 100% English. However, as I have Welsh and even a bit of Scots blood in me, I consider myself British more than anything. I bet there are a lot of that 50 million like that.

I think my point still applies! Ever heard of the expression about 'not seeing the wood for the trees'?

There are tens of times more non-Muslims living in England than the two million Muslims! There! That do you?

You've raised the matter of English ethnicity, not me! For me, it's a matter of attitude, not necessarily bloodline!

Are there really 2 million Muslims in the UK? I didn't think the figure was that high...?
