Ten per cent of UK children 'now part of mixed race family'

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1120963/Ten-cent-UK-children-mixed-race-family.html

Looks like interracial may be TOO plentiful in the U.K

lol

 

Interracial will become a worldwide movement.

 

haha NAH!!! i grew up in a diverse area but when i entered high school my family moved to a small town that was mostly white.....now that was TOO much lol, just seemed strange!!

 

How could they ever be too plentiful?

 

Did you read the article?Its so common,that if it continues,the black pop in the u.k is set to drastically decrease and may disappear all together

 

And what may happen to the white population, maybe races would truly "disappear" I don't see a thing wrong with that!

 

Blacks only make up 2% of the U.K,while whites make up over 92%

so how in the world would whites disappear? lol

 

It only takes a few drops of color to color a bowl full of white frosting!
Isn't black dominant?

 

Wtf?

lol......

Lemme just put it this way

Whites = over 90% of the pop

Blacks = only 2% of the pop

Black man/White Woman have a mulatto child

Due to the disparities in the pop,the child is more likely to reproduce with a white person when he/she gets older

the cycle continues .....

 

I think I can see what you both are saying. Yea, Tink, when a black and white couple have a baby, black is usually more dominant and the child is usually seen as black/"more black than white". But I think Malikom is saying, when the "more black than white" baby/person has a baby with a white person, then that baby will usually come out "lighter than a 'more black than white'" baby/person, then if the "lighter than a 'more black than white'" person has a baby with another white person, then the baby will be "mostly white". And the cycle continues as malikom said. So I can see how with that kind of population it would be impossible for blacks do dominate. Sorry if I worded it in a way that doesn't make sense, but it does to me, heh.

 

I think you have to live in the UK to notice but there are immigrants from Africa and the Carribean coming over to the UK all the time. The UK black population is growing everyday.

Although the figures from the 2001 census state the UK black population stood at 2% I predict it's much higher. Some state that it's around 3.5% although I can't find precise figures. Between 1991 and 2001 the black population almost doubled.

All I know is that the number of blacks migrating to the UK from Africa and the Carribean is increasing.

Most interracial couples in the UK live in the major cities in England - London, Manchester etc.. - but where I live you barely ever see mixed couples. This is probably because the black people there are more "British" - they have lived here for a few generations. Many people where I live are straight from Africa or wherever and are in relationships with another person of the same race. I can count on my 2 hands the amount of white/black partnerships in Aberdeen that I've seen.

Yes, mixed race births are increasing naturally as there are more people from other countries coming to the UK but black being wiped out in Britain? Na, not by a long shot.

That's what I think anyway. I'm pretty sure most British people would agree.

 

From Wikipedia:

Currently, Black British is used by the British authorities to mean UK passport holders of African or African-Caribbean origin (e.g. the usage of the Commission for Racial Equality).

According to an August 2008 article in the Daily Mail, 5.0% of children born in England and Wales in 2005 were fully blooded (as opposed to mixed race) Black Britons, meaning that by 2031 when the UK is expected to peak in population at 71 million,[2] there could be in excess of 3,600,000 Black Britons.

 

cosign...

3.5% seems so small..always thought percentage was higher than that..

 

First of all:
If you're so friggin worried about black genes dying out, you should stop dating white girls!!!

Secondly:
I find your comments extremely racist btw. "Oh no!!! Soon there's not any black people left because of all the mixing". Put in the word "white" instead of "black", and it's the exact same comments you'd find on racist site!

 

White like that Big Brother star Jade Goody? I don't think so.

 

it's growing real fast in the U.K especially in LONDON..

 

o really???

 

O yes!!! It's pretty much becoming a common thing, nice places are central London people are pretty relaxed here!!

 

Plus a lot of mixed race children are attending schools i know! average class is around 30 at least 8 would be mixed race (predominately white school that is)

 

Yeah I say we all go to London.


@ Swazi - yeah I think the figure is higher but that's all I could find.
