Religion and politics seem to spark major differences here, and it always seems to knock on to different threads, it isn't allowed, so please don't.

Remember, I don't take sides on religion nor race, and although I have very strong anti-Labour views on politics after that last 13 years, I remain neutral on all points and all people regardless. I won't hesitate to use the powers at my disposal to diffuse such arguments, so please remember that while you may have a viewpoint on one thing, virtually everyone else will have a different outlook.

Incidentally, I took some statistics from recent census and local news, and based on those, there are roughly 30,000 Muslims in Britain out of a population of just around 61,000,000. There were over 65,000 Pagans in the last census.


30K muslims? Are you serious SE13?? There's probably more than 30K in Ilford alone!! lol

In 2008 there were 2,065,012 muslims in Britain. Slightly off your figure of 30K unless you were talking about a census from 1941.
DEAD-WOOD OUT!!

Not sure where I got that figure from......

Anyhow, the result of the 2001 census says there are 1,588,890 Muslims in Britain. See: http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=954

EDIT
The figure came from the estimated amount of new Muslims since that census.
