chem1st   10 #1 Posted August 30, 2012 A record one in four of all babies born in England and Wales last year had a foreign mother, it was revealed today. Most of these women came to Britain from Poland, Pakistan and India and gave birth to a total of 184,000 children in 2011. Almost half of all these were in London, which has a foreign mother rate of 56.7 per cent, far above the national average of 25.5 per cent.  Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2195695/A-quarter-babies-born-hospital-England-Wales-foreign-mother--costing-NHS-fortune.html#ixzz252YIwHZH  In London, over half of the births last year were to foreign mums.

medusa   16 #4 Posted August 30, 2012 Such a woolly definition of 'foreign' in that piece (typical Daily Mail alarmist reporting, not making it clear what their point is).  Is a legitimate immigrant who has applied for citizenship 'foreign'? How about that woman's children when they come round to having their own children?  Alarmist claptrap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

boyfriday   21 #8 Posted August 30, 2012 Yet they all gave birth to English children.  ..indeed and let's not forget those English born mothers who get inseminated by immigrants..crikey, that must mean 110% of children are born to a foreign parent.  Here's one such example..  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/mo-farah-secures-another-double-1278957 (mind you, she looks like she's had a lick of the tar brush)  Oh and another..  http://www.itv.com/lorraine/lifestyle/olympic-mum-jessica-ennis/  Multi-culturism, it'll be the death of this country.

How about that woman's children when they come round to having their own children?  Alarmist claptrap.  Doesn’t the title make it clear. A quarter of babies born in hospital in England and Wales has a foreign-born mother   The mothers were born somewhere other than the UK.
