Muslim Exodus

[fender62]

came across this article recently, i dont read the independent..but i thought id persue this article, muslims leaving the uk because of islamophobia, i seriously believe it's not true, more like they are arriving and expanding in population ie birth rates etc, has anyone seen an exodus.

I can't see it all properly, because of adblock... I don't think it matters what people personally think... the statistics would be more accurate.
It isn't necessarily a bad thing that people are leaving... but I haven't seen exactly why.

Nope, quite the opposite if anything.

The only leavers I'm aware of are those going to Syria. And for every one of those there are loads who will travel across thousands of miles across seas and numerous countries to get in illegally

We should be so lucky.

//the statistics would be more accurate. //

That would depend upon who has compiled the statistics. These would appear to come from a group called TellMAMA ... so not to be taken too seriously. Actually I don't believe a word of it.

Well, I agree, naomi... I meant actual official numbers. Someone somewhere must have them.

"more like they are arriving and expanding in population ie birth rates etc"

Any proof? Or just a racial assumption?

Muslims don't have a country. It's a religion.

Also, just because people come to the country, that doesn't mean they never leave. Yes "muslims" may still be coming to the country but as said in the article, some are leaving due to Islamophobia.

I too have read individual articles over recent months where named (and unnamed) people have stated they are leaving the UK and why - but of course Official Figures are the only way to quantify any of this and whether it equates to an 'Exodus' (however many that may be).

[naomi24]

//I meant actual official numbers. Someone somewhere must have them. //

If anyone is leaving I imagine it's so few no one is counting.

[fiction-factory]

I don't think they ask for religion at the airports so the statistics may be difficult to compile

"I dont believe statistics unless I have had a chance to manipulate them muself"
is the last east german economics minister - cd be strauss
is HOnecke as he didnt do economics

strikes me as unlikely
that they are all going to Syria or some other liberated paradise.

i doubt any are leaving just the opposite, there are no freebies in islamic countries unlike britain, i refer to nhs, child benefit, social housing, tax credits, and other benefits that i cannot think of, oh most importantly free speech...for now anyway.

[emmie]

i would say it's the opposite to be truthful, going on my experiences in the capital...

[Theland]

I can't see Pakistan as being an idyllic destination for them, with only cricket as a diversion from their blasphemy laws and mob violence towards anybody even suspected of disrespecting the Paedophile.

[emmie]

there are according to figures i saw recently over 3 million muslims in UK, the majority live in the capital according to the source.. I can't see many leaving, more like coming here by hook or by crook..

[Jackdaw33]

The more that leave the merrier.I'll even chip ib for the fare.

[Theland]

Poor Emmie.
My heart goes out to you.
It must feel like a siege living in the capital.

[emmie]

sometimes, but hey it could be worse,

[Theland]

Let's spread a rumour that pork is being secretly injected into their halal meat and that their cruel animal slaughter is being outlawed.

[emmie]

let's not, though i consider that practice of halal method of slaughter appalling.
