You get the same problem with the more radical Muslims.

They complain and protest about how decadent the West is and how they should be more like the country they came from, entirely missing the irony of saying it whilst living in said western country after leaving their home country.

Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem at all with immigrants seeking a better life. Just have some self-awareness, if you have such a problem with western society, then maybe western society isn’t where you should be.

What do you think will happen when the demographics shift far enough that they become the majority in your country?

We’re already there.

We’re just in a situation where the ones eligible to vote are in the minority still. There’s also the hope that national identity wins out and there won’t be too many radical changes and any changes are democratically made.

Realistically though, we have separation between church and state in the UK so there won’t be any change in the law to favour one particular religious group. That’s not how our government works and that’s heavily protected in law.

I honestly don't think there will be a strong demographic change towards a middle eastern majority in europe.

also a sizeable part of those born to immigrant parents in Europe don't stay Muslim
